Royals star shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. remained in the dugout after the end of the game to watch the Yankees celebrate on the field, though few of his teammates did the same. Yankees DH Giancarlo Stanton took notice of this and made it a point to go over to Witt and acknowledge him before leaving the field.
