Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been making rounds lately. On Friday, fans spotted him at Globe Life Field attending the Game of the World Series, played between the Texas Rangers and Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks, as many can recall, beat the Philadelphia Phillies to win the NLCS.
It’s no surprise that everyone wants to see the greatest event on the baseball calendar, but why was he hiding from the camera? Well, maybe because this was a sort of betrayal.

Jason Kelce, a football center, plays for the Philadelphia Eagles. Hence, his connection with the city is deep. Thus, the Phillies’ loss in the NLCS broke Philadelphia’s hearts. Few days after the CS, Travis attending the game without his brother by his side, to support the team that shattered the dreams of Philadelphia, could be seen as betrayal. The Foul Territory TV report saw Kelce’s appearance as a way to disguise himself with the railing. Despite his attempts to conceal himself, unfortunately, Travis couldn’t evade the sharp eye of the camera.

In the game, the Arizona Diamondbacks were again aiming to dismantle a big team. They were leading 5-3 in the 9th inning, when Corey Seager hit a two-run homer to tie the score and take the game to tiebreakers.

For the following two innings, the teams went blow for blow with each other. Then Adolis Garcia entered the scene. However, he got hit at the bottom of the 9th inning. With vengeance in his eyes, he went to bat. That’s when he hit a massive walk-off home-run to the joy of the crowd. And the Snakes had just lost a game they were leading mere moments ago. Philadelphia must be smiling right now.

Apart from Garcia and Corey Seager, two other players had a great game. One was Diamondbacks’ rookie Corbin Caroll. He showed impact right from the first moment. During the third inning, Carroll smacked a two-RBI triple to center field, tying the score at 2-2. The other one was the outfielder Tommy Pham, who hit a solo home run for the D-Backs.
