Kansas City Royals second baseman Ben Zobrist has received clearance from his very pregnant wife, musician Julianna, to remain playing in the World Series should she go into labor.
“She said, ‘You better hit a home run,’” Zobrist joked before the Royals’ 7-1 Game 2 victory, via the New York Post. “She already kind of let me know, if we’re in the middle of a game, she’s probably not going to tell me what’s going on, and that’s fine, I trust her and trust our family members around her.”
Julianna Zobrist is due to give birth to the couple’s third child on Nov.
