Kangaroo Roxy Steals Show at Baseball Game

0:00On April 9, a 10-month-old kangaroo named Roxy made her big league debut at a minor league baseball game in Spartanburg, South Carolina. It was Waggy Wednesday at 5th third park where the high A Spartanburgers beat the Greenville Drive 4-1. Roxy joined the usual dogs in the stands, chilling with her owner Morgan Meeks. Meeks said Roxy loved every minute after a quick nap in her bottle. Rest in a Spartanburgers bandana, she stayed cozy under blankets in the 55-degree chill. Turns out, she's not alone. Her family has seven more kangaroos at home, with four on the way. Fans and staff went wild over the surprise marsupial guest. The team broadcast crew even floated the idea of a kangaroo parade, just like the dogs get before games. It felt like Fate 2, a pitcher named Joey Danielson and Outfielder Antonis Macias, who played down under in Australia, both got a boost with Roxy. There. Macias crushed his first homer of the season.

1:00This came right after Cast took over Tuesday's game, keeping the animal vibes rolling. Broadcasters are already betting on a peacock showing up soon, and they're making calls to make it happen. Hub cities turning ballpark nights into a full zoo takeover, and with luck like Roxy's, the winds might just keep popping. You've been listening to MLB News today, AI-powered baseball coverage.
