The first player up, Chris, confidently started with “Kevin” but stumbled on the last name, misspelling it as “Kier Meer.” The contagion of misspelling spread quickly, with subsequent players offering variations like “Kiermayeir” and “Kiermier.”

Even veteran players admitted defeat, with one sheepishly confessing, “I played against him a lot and I loved his game… I’ve known it just because I’ve been a fan.”

The pressure finally got to Kevin Kiermaier himself, who, after watching his teammates struggle, offered to spell his own last name for a laugh. He playfully chided them, saying, “There’s an A in there! There’s an A in there!”

Finally, after a string of misses, Alandra, the lone woman in the group, emerged victorious, spelling “Kiermaier” correctly. Her accomplishment was met with cheers and high fives from her teammates.

This lighthearted exchange highlights the camaraderie and fun that can exist within a professional sports team. It also serves as a reminder that even the best athletes can struggle with the most basic tasks, bringing them down to a relatable level for fans.
