Los Angeles Dodgers player Max Muncy’s wife, Kellie, recently opened up about the challenges of being a baseball wife. Muncy made his Dodgers debut in 2018, the same year he married the love of his life.

Having spent over six years as a Dodgers wife, Kellie is well-acquainted with both the highs and lows that come with the role. During a Q&A session on her Instagram Story on Friday, a follower asked her about the most difficult part of being married to a baseball player.

In response, Kellie shared a screenshot of an offensive message she received from a baseball fan. Along with it, she wrote:

“This doesn’t perfectly translate in English but if you know Spanish you know this is horrible ✌️”

She went on to elaborate:

“As much as we try to compartmentalize their performance on the field, it is nearly impossible to not let their struggles affect us. We hurt when they hurt and the slumps are very tough on us too.”

“Also, you’ll be minding your own business on a Tuesday and receive messages like this after a hard game 😩 thankfully the ratio of these messages compared to all the positive ones are very low, but it is still hard having to filter through.”

Two-time All-Star infielder Max Muncy made his MLB debut in 2015 with the Oakland Athletics. He played parts of two seasons with the A’s before being released in April 2017.

Shortly after, the Los Angeles Dodgers signed Muncy to a minor league contract and following a strong stint in Triple-A Oklahoma City Dodgers, he was called up to the majors in April 2018.
