Anthony Volpe’s girlfriend was clearly nervous during the exciting Yankees win on Tuesday night.
As she watched Game 3 of the ALDS from the Bronx, Elle Jowett held onto his knees, capturing the energy of the moment as the Yankees pulled off a 9-6 comeback against the Blue Jays.
This season is stretching into mid-October, and Jowett has begun sharing a bit more about her relationship with Volpe, who is 24 and plays shortstop. She wore a comfy navy sweater adorned with various MLB and Yankees patches.
Despite a rough streak with five straight losses, Aaron Judge stepped up, smashing a three-run homer in the fourth inning that reignited the team’s spirit and helped clinch a win in Game 4.
“He was phenomenal in that game,” said coach Aaron Boone, reflecting on the importance of Judge’s performance amidst their struggles in the series.
Kam Schritler is set to take the mound on Wednesday night, coming off a week of rest after playing a key role in their wildcard victory over the Red Sox.
Volpe had a tough regular season but managed to drive in some runs against Boston during the series.
Following the win over the Red Sox, Volpe celebrated on the field with Jowett, who was thrilled to see the Yankees advance to the ALDS.
The couple posed together at Yankee Stadium, where Jowett sported a stylish white long sleeve shirt, navy track pants, and a chic Yves Saint Laurent bag.
In an Instagram post from October 2nd, she shared a photo at the stadium, wearing a navy and white jacket, a white top, and low-rise jeans, along with an eye-catching black Chanel bag.
On the field, Volpe struggled on Tuesday, striking out three times and managing just one hit in Game 1 in Toronto.
Game 4 is scheduled to kick off on Wednesday after 7 PM.
