Some people want their family around for big news, and the new Houston Astros’ pick for the Major League roster was no exception!
Cam Smith broke down in tears when his family entered the locker room because he realized that meant he’d been selected for the team’s Opening Day roster. The emotional encounter was orchestrated by manager Joe Espada and posted by the team on X on Tuesday, March 25.
“So, Cam, do you know why you’re here?” the 22-year-old right fielder’s mom asked him after he hugged his loved ones.
“Yes,” he responded with a laugh.
