Kris Bryant is making his Major League debut at Wrigley Field this afternoon. All he’s being expected to do is save the Chicago Cubs and deliver the first World Series to the North Side since 1908.
In addition to sky-high expectations and pressure, Bryant will be the recipient of intense scrutiny as his every at-bat is analyzed by snap-decision enthusiasts.
But Bryant doesn’t have to face it all alone.
He’ll have longtime girlfriend Jessica Delp to lean on.

The Chicago Sun-Times, a very serious newspaper, reports the couple has been together for six years.
UPDATE: Bryant’s first at-bat was a three-pitch strikeout so enjoy this guy while he lasts.
