Jonah Heim opens up about his wife Kenzie’s response to settling in Texas
Jonah Heim made his MLB debut with the Oakland Athletics in August 2020, and in February 2021, he was traded to the Texas Rangers. While trades can be disappointing for some, Heim and his wife, Kenzie, were quite optimistic about the move.
Discussing their views, Jonah Heim said (via Fox4news.com):
"We rented a nice little house, and my wife was like, ‘We gotta move here.’ So then we bought a house, and we’re stationed here now. So we’re happy to be here, and we want to be here for a very long time."
The 2023 season with the Texas Rangers was the best of Heim’s career. He helped lead his team to a World Series title, earned his first All-Star selection, and won a Gold Glove Award. He recorded a career-high .258 batting average, hitting 18 homers and driving in 95 RBIs across 131 games.
