Während er auf dem Platz glänzte, sorgte sie auf der Tribüne für noch mehr Aufsehen.
Lia Anthony (23), Schwester von Baseball-Talent Roman Anthony (21), stahl ihrem Bruder beim 3:1-Sieg der Boston Red Sox gegen die Tampa Bay Rays glatt die Show.
Die junge US-Amerikanerin unterstützte Roman gemeinsam mit ihren Eltern im Bostoner Fenway Park und wurde dabei mehrfach im TV gezeigt. Schnell wurde Lia in den sozialen Netzwerken DAS Thema unter in den Baseball-Fans.
[–>„Wir haben verloren, aber ich bin verliebt in Roman Anthonys Schwester“, schrieb ein Anhänger der unterlegenen Rays aus Florida auf der Plattform „X“. Ein anderer forderte: „Man sollte eine Petition starten, dass Roman Anthonys Schwester einen festen Platz im Kader bekommt.“ Ein weiterer Fan meinte: „Roman Anthony macht seinen ersten Hit und seine Schwester trendet bei Twitter. Was für ein Leben.“ Und ein Vierter richtete sich direkt an die Boston Red Sox: „Hey @RedSox. Was halten wir davon, Roman und seine Schwester zu behalten?“
Bei Roman stehen die Chancen ziemlich gut für weitere Einsätze. Der Right Fielder der Red Sox zählt zu den vielversprechendsten Nachwuchsspielern in der Major League Baseball (MLB). Das Match gegen die Rays war erst sein zweiter Einsatz in der Profi-Liga. Mit einem Schlag am Ende des ersten Innings brachte er zwei Runs ins Ziel und sorgte somit die zwischenzeitliche 2:0-Führung.
Seine Familie war nach dem Spiel mega-stolz auf Roman. Während Mutter Lori Tränen in den Augen hatte, feierte ihn seine Schwester in einem Interview mit „NESN“.
„Wir haben ihn bei allem unterstützt, sind immer für ihn da und geben einfach unser Bestes“, sagte Lia. „Aber ehrlich gesagt, es liegt ganz an ihm. Es ist beeindruckend, wie er sich gibt und wie er in Interviews spricht. Es ist unglaublich … es ist surreal. Das Ganze ist surreal.“
Man darf gespannt sein, wie surreal es noch für Lia selbst wird. Ihre Follower-Zahl bei Instagram schoss nach ihrem TV-Auftritt direkt um einige Tausend in die Höhe.

Hamilton declares new-style F1 cars ‘more enjoyable’ to drive
Lewis Hamilton said he was finding F1's new-style 2026 cars "more fun" to drive after an encouraging start to pre-season for Ferrari at the Barcelona shakedown.The seven-time world champion made no secret of his dislike of the last era of cars from 2022, which featured ground-effect aerodynamics, saying towards the end of last season that there was "not a single thing I will miss about these cars". The 2022-2025 era coincided with Hamilton's least successful period in F1, with the Briton outscored by his team-mates (George Russell at Mercedes and Charles Leclerc at Ferrari) in three of those four seasons. But F1 has moved to nimbler, narrower chassis with more conventional floors for reduced downforce for 2026 as part of a wholesale rewriting of the the technical rulebook.After completing 209 laps in Ferrari's new SF-26 across three days of running […]
Welcome to Super Bowl 60! The greatest party in sport is here
It was on June 11, 1962 that Frank Morris and the Anglin brothers staged one of the most daring and infamous prison breaks in history, breaching the maximum security confines of Alcatraz to disappear into the San Franciscan night.Their fate remains a mystery, but the tale lives on as a stalwart beacon of Bay Area folklore, the ensuing eeriness of Alcatraz Island neighbouring the opulence of the Golden Gate Bridge as pillars to the stage of Super Bowl 60. Now bear with us while we botch an attempt to shoehorn Alcatraz analogies into footballing narrative, for a story of fortress defiance meets an NFL finale of defiance when the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks fight for the Lombardi Trophy at Levi's Stadium on Sunday. It had been an escape built on precision planning, execution and deception. Where Morris and […]
Grading the 10 NFL Head Coaching Hires: From John Harbaugh to Klint Kubiak
The last time the NFL welcomed in 10 new head coaches was 2022, and four short years later, eight of those 10 have already been fired. So at least this year’s group of 10 can’t possibly be worse, right?Time will tell, of course. But for now, here’s the FOX Sports ranking of the 10 new head coaches hired in the 2026 cycle, complete with a very early grade for each.Did the Cardinals accidentally pick the wrong coordinator off of Sean McVay’s staff?The NFL world was buzzing at the start of this cycle about the potential for Rams defensive coordinator Chris Shula to be the next great coach off the McVay tree. Instead, the 38-year-old LaFleur leapfrogged him. Maybe the Cardinals saw something others didn't in his two unremarkable years as the Jets offensive coordinator directing eventual draft bust Zach Wilson?Or […]
Men’s College Basketball Rankings: Florida, Illinois Climbing; Purdue Falls
This is the most interesting men's college basketball season I can remember in the past 15 years. This freshmen class is incredible. NIL means that talent is staying put and the quality of play I’m watching is fantastic.What's more, the race for the top-4 seed lines of the NCAA tournament has never been more compelling. Here’s the latest edition of my men's college basketball rankings, as of Feb. 1.*Note: Miami (Ohio) is 22-0, but its strength of schedule is 332nd in the country. The RedHawks are a great story, but I’m not sure that I'll rank them at all this year. Being undefeated is cool and all, but you have to put it into context.

And he wasn't happy about it.Former White Sox first baseman Frank Thomas went to social media to voice his frustration.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisement“I guess the Black player who made you rich over there and holds all your records is forgettable!" he wrote.

Patriots FB Jack Westover’s Sister Wins $18K on Preseason Super Bowl Bet
In terms of preseason betting odds, the Seattle Seahawks-New England Patriots matchup in Super Bowl LX is the most unlikely Super Bowl matchup ever — and someone close to one of the teams was able to cash off that stat.Patriots fullback Jack Westover's sister placed a $5 bet on her brother's team to take on the Seahawks in Super Bowl LX back in training camp. Roughly six months later, she's $18,000 richer as a result of the bet, Westover told KJR 93.3 FM in an interview. "She has her second baby on the way, so she's happy about that," Westover said.Westover's comment implies that his sister wagered the Patriots and Seahawks to meet in Super Bowl LX at roughly +360000 odds, capitalizing on the longshot odds each team would be playing in Santa Clara on Feb. 8.
