Bobby Witt Jr. of the Kansas City Royals has become the first shortstop in MLB history to achieve multiple seasons with at least 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases. Witt Jr. reached this milestone by stealing his 30th base in a game against the Detroit Tigers, adding to his 31 home runs for the season. This achievement has solidified his reputation as a key player in the Royals' current playoff chase and signifies a shift in the role of shortstops in modern baseball. Witt Jr. also leads the majors with 200 hits, a .332 average, and 112 runs scored, making him a pivotal figure in the Royals' resurgence from a 106-loss season last year. His accomplishments are celebrated by Kansas City fans, who have shown strong support throughout the season. Witt Jr.'s historic performance may be soon joined by Francisco Lindor, who is also nearing a 30-30 season.
