Kansas City Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. is making MLB All-Star Game appearances an annual tradition for himself, as the 26-year-old is preparing to compete in his third Midsummer Classic this year. While on the All-Star red carpet on Tuesday, Witt caught up with the guys from Jomboy Media and was asked an intriguing question . Former player Trevor Plouffe asked the Royals superstar if he had a favorite between making a big defensive play, stealing a crucial base or coming through with a huge home run.
"I think hitting a walk-off grand slam," Witt said, via Talkin' Baseball. "That was my go-to."
Witt accomplished that exact feat back in 2023 in a victory against the Detroit Tigers . It sounds like he wants to replicate that feat soon.

Overall, the Royals have disappointed this season . Witt, however, is performing well once again. He is hitting .286/.355/.461 to go along with 13 home runs and 22 doubles. The infielder also leads the league with a 4.9 WAR and 30 stolen bases.
Witt is an electric player on the field . He does everything at a high level. Not only can Witt hit for power and average while also stealing bases, but he plays a tremendous brand of defense at shortstop. His overall ability to impact the game makes him arguably the best all-around position player in the sport.
Witt is set to bring his elite talent to the American League All-Star team once again on Tuesday night as they look to defeat the National League in what should be a good game.
