Heading into the World Series, there was some speculation whether Kansas City Royals infielder/outfielder Ben Zobrist would leave the club if his wife, Julianna, was to go into labor this week.
Apparently, Julianna isn't due to give birth until November 10, which would keep Zobrist out of trouble, so to speak. However, just in case, he and his wife have have a game plan in place should something happen: she just won't call him.
