It’s not every day that a professional athlete shows his appreciation for his teammates in such a unique way, but that’s exactly what Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez did recently. On the team’s recent road trip, Rodriguez surprised his teammates by gifting them all Adidas gear inspired by the iconic hip-hop group Run-DMC.
The idea came to Rodriguez after he heard a story about how Run-DMC had been banned from performing at certain venues due to their style of dress. He wanted to show his teammates that he respected their individuality and wanted to show his appreciation for their hard work.
The Adidas gear was a perfect fit for the road trip, as it was both stylish and comfortable. Rodriguez even went the extra mile and had the gear customized with each teammate’s name and number on it. His teammates were thrilled with the gesture and many of them were seen wearing the gear during the trip.
Rodriguez’s gesture was a great example of how professional athletes can show their appreciation for their teammates. It’s not often that a professional athlete goes out of their way to show their appreciation in such a unique way, but Rodriguez did just that. His gesture was a reminder that even in the midst of a grueling road trip, it’s important to take the time to show your appreciation for your teammates.
