Earlier this week, the story of 8-year-old Ashlynn took the internet by storm. A standout player for her regional team, she recently outplayed everyone to earn MVP honors, only to be told she shouldn't be playing baseball because she's a girl.
Her viral fame led her to Rogers Centre on Wednesday as a guest of the Blue Jays, who treated her to some pregame magic before they took on the Indians. Here she is having a face-to-face with none other than Vlad Guerrero Jr.:
That special moment when you meet your favourite player ❤️

Just two baseball phenoms meeting each other and exchanging pleasantries, no big deal.
