An Engaging Chat Between Jorge Polanco and Nelson Cruz
Nelson Cruz: Jorge! Long time no see, hermano. How’s everything going with the Twins? Still keeping that infield tight, I bet.
Jorge Polanco: Nelson! It’s great to see you. Yeah, man, you know it. The infield is as tight as ever. How’s life treating you over in D.C.? Hitting those moonshots for the Nationals yet?
Nelson Cruz: (Laughs) You know it. It’s like riding a bike. Once you start hitting them, you can’t stop. But, tell me, how are you handling the transition to playing more second base? I know shortstop was your jam.
Jorge Polanco: Honestly, it was a bit of an adjustment at first. But I’ve come to really enjoy it. There’s something about being involved in more double plays and just a different perspective of the field. Keeps things fresh, you know?
Nelson Cruz: That’s the spirit! Speaking of fresh, have you tried any new walk-up songs this year, or sticking to the classics?
Jorge Polanco: Oh, man, you know me. I like to mix it up. Been going with a bit more of a reggaeton vibe this season. The beat gets me pumped up just right. How about you? Any new favorites?
Nelson Cruz: Got to keep things exciting! You know I love my bachata, but lately, I’ve been digging some salsa vibes. It’s all about finding that rhythm that gets your head in the game.
Jorge Polanco: Absolutely, it’s all about that rhythm. Speaking of which, you still doing your charity work with Boomstick 23 Foundation? That’s some impactful stuff you’re doing, Nelson.
Nelson Cruz: Thanks, Jorge. Yeah, we’re still going strong. Giving back is so important, especially to the communities that supported me. How about you? Any plans to expand your own community efforts?
Jorge Polanco: Definitely. I’ve been working on starting a program to give kids in the Dominican Republic access to better baseball facilities. I want to give back to where it all started for me.
Nelson Cruz: That’s amazing to hear. The next generation needs role models like you. Keep pushing, Jorge. We’re not just making plays on the field; we’re changing lives off it.
Jorge Polanco: You’re right, Nelson. It’s a bigger game than just baseball. Thanks for the chat, hermano. Let’s keep making those moves, on and off the field.
Nelson Cruz: You got it. Catch you soon, Jorge. And remember, keep those reggaeton beats bumping!
