Mariners’ Julio Rodriguez In Partnership With Alaska Airlines Sponsors Round Trip Ticket For Every Home Run He Hits

The Seattle Mariners fans will be overjoyed to learn that Julio Rodriguez has inked a new promotional contract with Alaska Airlines. As part of the new agreement, the Airlines will give a select group of fans free flights whenever the outfielder hits a home run.

Mariners’ Julio Rodriguez In Partnership With Alaska Airlines Sponsors Round Trip Ticket For Every Home Run He Hits

Julio Rodriguez was anticipated to be a great figure in the team and had such advertising opportunities coming towards him after a record-breaking 2022 Rookie of the Year winning season. He has already been in commercials and is accustomed to being in the spotlight.

The partnership is already receiving praise for its originality and the benefits it will provide for fans. For every home run Rodriguez hits at Seattle’s T-Mobile Park, Alaska Airlines will take 44 fans in the section where the ball lands on a free round-trip flight of their choice.

An appropriate method to promote No. 44 to the local and national baseball fan bases, as well as an efficient strategy for Alaska Airlines to win over passengers at a time when flying is so expensive.

Additionally, for the remainder of the season, every time Julio Rodriguez hits a home run in the fourth inning of a home game, one fan will get 100,000 Alaska Airlines free mile vouchers.

These sponsorships were inescapable when the 22-year-old made a splash on the scene last year. He batted.284 with 28 long balls and helped the Mariners advance to the postseason for the first time in more than 20 years.

Rodriguez hit a home run on Sunday, giving him nine for the season—six of which came in Seattle. In comparison to his debut year in 2022, when he hit 28 home runs in 560 plate appearances, the 22-year-old is homering less frequently in 2023.

Neither Rodriguez nor the supporters anticipated how this year would begin. He was quite chilly before this week, but he is now having the greatest 2023 thus far. The center fielder has eight home runs and a current batting average of.238. His comeback is happening at the same time as Seattle is on its most reliable run ever and has surpassed the.500 mark.
