By | October 14, 2024

Taylor Swift has attended a plethora of high-profile sporting events. She’s been to the Super Bowl. She’s seen the US Open final.

Now, she may be adding playoff baseball to the list. 

The Yankees and Guardians get underway in the 2024 ALCS on Monday night, as New York hosts Cleveland in the Bronx. After both teams received byes for finishing as the top two seeds in the AL, the Yankees got by the Royals in four games, while the Guardians took out their AL Central rival Tigers in five games.

Yankee Stadium is always good to have a number of celebrities in attendance, and there’s a shot that one of the most famous couples in sports will be watching the start of the ALCS action, with Swift and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce rumored to be appearing. 

The Sporting News has the latest updates on if Swift and Kelce are in New York to watch the Yankees vs. Guardians ALCS Game 1.

Is Taylor Swift at the Yankees game today? 

Yankees manager Aaron Boone hinted at the fact that he heard that Swift and Kelce would be at Game 1 between the Yankees and Guardians.

Neither Kelce nor Swift are Yankee fans, but both have ties to baseball. If football did not work out for the Chiefs tight end, baseball was the “backup plan,” as Kelce was a strong performer on the diamond.

Meanwhile, Swift previously performed the National Anthem at the World Series. In 2008 when the Phillies faced the Rays in the Fall Classic, Swift performed the “Star Spangled Banner” in front of the Philadelphia crowd at Citizens Bank Park. 

Swift is currently on a brief break from touring. Her next show is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 18 in Miami, the first of a string of three shows for the musician.

Kelce had the weekend off, so he has the time to fly to New York. The Chiefs enjoyed a bye in Week 6. Kansas City is one of two teams without a loss on its record, as Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and company sit at 5-0 heading into Week 7.
