It has been revealed that Francisco Lindor (33), the star player of the New York Mets in Major League Baseball (MLB) and a "key infielder," has decided to undergo a vasectomy, drawing significant attention.
According to a report by Japanese baseball media outlet "Full Count" on the 27th, Lindor's wife, Katia Lindor, recently shared news of her husband's surgery in a lighthearted manner through her social media (SNS). The Lindor couple has three children: daughters Kalina (5) and Ampola (3), and son Koa, who is 18 months old.
Katia wrote, "After having three beautiful children, we decided to completely finalize our family planning," adding, "I have been the one giving birth all this time, so now it's time for my husband to step up for the family. I love you."
In particular, the thoughtful "vasectomy celebration basket" prepared by his wife for Lindor elicited laughter. Katia filled it with witty snacks, including cooling underwear, painkillers, and jelly candies labeled with the phrase "No More." The card read, "A completely new ball game has begun. Happy Vasectomy Day! Blessed to be with the best teammate," making her husband smile. The video also captured Lindor beaming as he opened the gift package with his wife.
Lindor, who shared cheerful family news off the field, also celebrated a double milestone on the 27th by being selected as the recipient of the "Roberto Clemente Award," MLB's most prestigious award for community service and character. It is reported that this marks only the fifth time in history that a player from Puerto Rico has received this award.
Lindor, who signed a massive contract with the Mets ahead of the 2021 season worth $341 million (approximately 452.3 billion won) over 10 years, posted a batting average of .225, 21 home runs, and an OPS of .733 this season, while his team finished at the bottom of its division. However, fans are now focused on whether Lindor, who has refreshed his spirit by winning the top charity award and cheerfully finalizing his family plans, can achieve a turnaround on the field next season.
