This week, Kansas City Chiefs quaterback Patrick Mahomes reunited with shortstop Derek Jeter of the MLB Hall of Fame.
Mahomes gave the New York Yankees icon a picture of the two of them when he was a little boy receiving an autograph from Jeter.
The picture recently went viral on social media. It depicts a young Patrick Mahomes standing with his hand inside an oversized glove.
He has a grin on his face when Jeter, dressed in pinstripes, stands next to him and places his hand on Mahomes' cap. The previous captain of the Yankees had also signed it.
The second picture has Mahomes gazing in astonishment at Jeter as the now retired star holds the autographed photo in his hand.
Pat Mahomes Sr. spent 11 years of his life playing in the MLB. All of Mahomes Jr.'s upbringing was spent around ballparks, including his time in New York. Despite the fact that Mahomes Sr. played for the Mets, his son remained cordial with their opponents across town.
