New Bobby & Salvy t-shirt from BreakingT!

Salvy has Bobby’s back!

The Royals find themselves in a pennant race, and they have been carried through much of this year by two of their All-Stars - veteran catcher Salvador Perez and phenom shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. The bond between those two was evident this week when Bobby was plunked by Diamondbacks pitcher Humberto Castellanos, eliciting barking from Salvy to the Diamondbacks bench.

As Salvy told reporters later, “I’m going to have Junior’s back.”
