Patrick dazzled the MLB fans on June 2nd with a stunning performance. He joined a star-studded charity softball game at Kauffman Stadium and showed off his skills. He smashed a home run and pulled off a jaw-dropping behind-the-back throw to catch Eric Stonestreet at first base. He led his team to a victory and won the hearts of the crowd. Mahomes even exclaimed his victory in words“It feels better than Super Bowl.”

Although Patrick impressed everyone with his behind-the-back pass, it’s not his baseball move. It’s his football trick that he likes to practice at training camps to impress his coaches. He hasn’t tried it in a real NFL game yet, but he thinks he can pull it off someday. He even showed it off at a charity softball game in 2023, where he threw out actor Eric Stonestreet with style. So, even though Mahomes knows some baseball, he loves football more. The charity event was a huge success due to the presence of big stars.
