There is no doubt that Randy Arozarena became an idol of the fans after his participation with the Mexican team in the 2023 World Baseball Classic. This participation led him to be at the National Palace again this Tuesday to receive the National Sports Award and star in a great moment with the president of Mexico.
The Mexican nationalized baseball player received the PND along with other members of the Mexican Baseball Team in the Professional Sports category, a moment he took advantage of to perform his iconic pose with his arms crossed.
AMLO mimics Randy Arozarena’s pose
The government of Mexico held this Tuesday, December 19, the ceremony to present the National Sports Award, an event attended by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and Ana Gabriela Guevara, general director of the National Commission of Physical Culture and Sports, among others. officials.
The Mexican Baseball Team won the distinction in the professional sports category thanks to its brilliant performance throughout the year, starting with the World Baseball Classic, going through the gold medal at the Central American and Caribbean Games in San Salvador, as well as bronze at the Pan American Games in Santiago.
Randy Arozarena went up to receive the distinction and, when AMLO gave him the award, the president was immediately crossing his arms to do the legendary pose that the player popularized. The Tampa Bay Rays outfielder reacted immediately and also posed for the cameras.
AMLO and Randy Arozarena had already met in previous weeks when the PND winners were announced. On that occasion, the Mexican president took the opportunity to compare him with the iconic Puerto Rican player Roberto Clemente.
“Very grateful for all the support that Mexico has given me and I am just another Mexican,” Arozarena said in a video published on the president’s accounts in the previous meeting. “I love these fans, they always bring me present wherever I go to play in any Major League stadium, they are always present with their flags, hats, boots. It is incredible what I have received. Thank you, president! And thanks also to all Mexicans.”
