Juan Soto's new $765 million signing status won't make a dent in his humility as he knows what it's like to come from a humble background in the Dominican Republic, where several aspiring kids are hoping to become the next Albert Pujols, Aaron Judge, Juan Soto and Shohei Ohtani. Among them is Leonardo from Santo Domingo, DR, who aims to become a superstar baseball player in the future.
On Wednesday, Soto visited Tigres del Licey's home park Estadio Quisqueya Juan Marichal in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. There, he met Leonardo. Dressed in Licey colors and beaming with excitement, Leonardo got the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet his hero. Soto not only shared his time but also gifted Leonardo a jersey.
The duo went on to meet several players of the Tigres Del Licey, who plays in the Dominican Professional Baseball League. Soto shared the experience on his Instagram story on Wednesday. Along with several photos, Soto also penned a touching note for Leonardo.
