The journey of Patrick Mahomes from a high school baseball star to an NFL sensation is nothing but incredible. He has well-documented his career in the field. Despite finding his true calling in football years ago, he has always remembered his roots in baseball. 

Even if it was just for a taste of the game, he once excelled in it. Mahomes grew up in a family that is hereditary and connected with baseball. His father was a former MLB pitcher. Therefore, he was destined to mark his name in the sport.

Recently, in an interview with the Times, the player expressed his interest in joining the Kansas City Royals. He is eager to participate in the team's spring training, as he wants to test his abilities on the baseball field once again.
