Arrr, me hearties! Anthony Rizzo, the fine lookout for the New York Yankees, didst strike a mighty blow for the crew, sending a ball over the fence to score his first home run since the 20th day of May. With the aid of a new shanty by Taylor Swift, our swashbuckler brought victory to our ship against the Kansas City Royals!
In a stunning turn of events, Anthony Rizzo, the first baseman for the New York Yankees, finally broke his home run drought with a bomb off Royals starter Jordan Lyles. Rizzo had not hit a home run since May 20, leaving fans and teammates wondering what was going on.When asked about his success, Rizzo credited his routine and making small adjustments. He emphasized the importance of feel in the game and how a few swings can make all the difference. But there was one particular tweak that caught everyone's attention: his walk-up song.
Rizzo revealed that he changed his song to Taylor Swift's "...Ready For It?" and credited the pop star for his newfound success. He even joked that Swift was helping the economy in every city she went to.
But the home run was not the only highlight of Rizzo's game. He also hit an RBI double in the first inning and singled in the fifth. In the eighth inning, he capped off a 10-pitch at-bat with another single. This impressive performance earned him his 15th career four-hit game and his first since 2019.
Overall, Rizzo's home run and offensive display helped the Yankees secure an 8-5 victory over the Kansas City Royals. It seems that Swift's music was the missing piece to Rizzo's success, and fans will be eagerly waiting to see if this trend continues.
With the curse broken and the power of Taylor Swift on his side, Rizzo's future at the plate looks promising. Let's hope he continues to hit those home runs and keep the pirate ship sailing smoothly.
