Travis Kelce Mashes Home Run During Batting Practice With Aaron Judge

Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce and Yankees slugger Aaron Judge seem to have linked up for a bit of batting practice recently. The pair featured in a video for A SHOC ENERGY, in which Judge was seen giving Kelce some pointers on how best to swing the bat. 

Kelce soaked in the advice and showcased his batting stance for the reigning AL MVP, which included a massive leg kick that Judge insisted would strike fear into an opposing pitcher. 

After going through the motions, Kelce faced some batting practice pitches and uncorked a massive home run over the fence out in left field, which was followed, of course, by the two star athletes celebrating. 

It didn’t take long for Kelce to get a hold of one, before he jokingly trotted down the line to run the bases, though he stopped shy of first base.

All in all, it wasn’t too shabby of a display from Kansas City’s tight end, who could potentially help out a struggling Royals lineup early on in the 2023 MLB season. 

It’s been quite the offseason for the reigning Super Bowl champion, who, in addition to hitting dingers with the AL home run king, also lived out a lifelong dream when he featured on Saturday Night Live. Oh, and he threw one of the worst first pitches of all time at a Guardians game, too.
