Báez’s Historic Debut Honors His Father | MLB News

Joshua Báez etched his name in baseball history with a historic debut—three home runs, five RBIs, and a win in his first MLB game. It was more than a performance; it was a tribute to his late father, José Manuel, who never played pro ball but dreamed of it. Báez felt his dad’s presence throughout, even spotting a persistent bee he saw as a sign of pride. His mother, Yris, watched from the stands as the moment honored a legacy, especially since his four-homer game earlier this season coincided with the third anniversary of his father’s passing. Celebrating with 30 family members in the rain, Báez’s journey—fueled by love, promise, and resilience—became a story of legacy, heart, and unforgettable triumph.
