The MLB rookies had an outstanding season. Multiple players stormed the big stage, making a powerful impact on their teams. It included the New York Yankees‘ Anthony Volpe, who played as a shortstop and checked all the boxes to win the Gold Glove in his rookie season.

Confirming the same, Rodriguez was present when the world celebrated Volpe’s achievement, but the Yankees icon’s presence was accompanied by a twist.

However, as a baseball player, he had to be present on the big night marking the end of a great season. Alex did just the same, but used his multitasking skills to manage his absence on the hard court.
