Cleveland Guardians catcher Austin Hedges proposed to his girlfriend Lexi Dickinson on the field after the team’s win yesterday, and the photos are so sweet!
The 33-year-old MLB player got down on one knee after the team’s victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday (April 19) at Progressive Field in Cleveland, Ohio.
A photographer caught the moment she was proposed to. The proposal included the question on the field’s jumbotron, which read: “Lexi WILL YOU MARRY ME?”
Austin told reporters (via ESPN), “I’ve had the ring since early spring training but was just trying to figure out when the right time was,” Hedges told reporters, per ESPN. “I was going to do it regardless … but I really wanted to win that game to make it extra special.”
“I had a lot of nerves today,” he added. “I’m always nervous for baseball games, but just trying to stay present, knowing there were some activities after made it harder. It was a special day. A special day to be able to soak it all in.”
Congratulations to the happy couple on the wonderful news!
