While the newlywed couple deservedly took center stage, Royals captain Perez and his wife, Maria, were dressed to impress. Perez looked sharp in a classic black tux, while Maria dazzled in a one-shoulder, sleeveless, sequin-embroidered cocktail dress with a backless design.

After proposing to his girlfriend in December 2023, Bobby Witt Jr. married Maggie Black on December 14, 2024. Several MLB players and teammates attended the function, often sharing snippets from the event.

Yesterday, Royals captain Salvador Perez’s wife shared a video on her Instagram story featuring Bobby Witt Jr. and his wife, Maggie, singing the hit song "Don’t Stop Believin’" by the iconic rock band Journey, released in 1981.

In the video, the 2024 AL MVP finalist and his wife excitedly belted out the song during a karaoke session. Witt Jr. had already removed the coat from his tuxedo as he joyfully embraced this new chapter in his life.

In 2024, the Royals surpassed expectations by reaching the ALDS, where they faced off against the New York Yankees, the eventual World Series finalists. Following a disastrous campaign in 2023, few anticipated that the Royals would pose a challenge to the Yankees in the postseason.

Bobby Witt Jr. was the lynchpin for the Royals in the regular season, in a performance that many believe would've bagged an MVP honor if not for the presence of Aaron Judge. Nonetheless, Witt Jr.'s postseason performance didn't live up to expectations.
