Taylor Swift spent a chilly evening in The Bronx watching the New York Yankees in the postseason — and she was treated to a fireworks show in the form of a Juan Soto solo recording.
Swift was spotted with boyfriend Travis Kelce in the hospitality suites of Yankee Stadium on Monday evening for the opening game of the American League Championship Series (ALCS) against the Cleveland Guardians.
As temperatures dropped into the mid-40s, the game began to heat up when Soto hit a home run over the right-centerfield wall to give the Yankees a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the third inning.
Soto pointed to the sky as he rounded first base celebrating giving the home fans something to cheer about.
Swift joined in the celebration and looked stunned as the ball left the field as she turned to her husband to take in the moment.

The Yankees extended their lead later that inning by scoring two runs on wild pitches from Guardians pitcher Joey Cantillo.
It comes while Kelce’s brother, Jason, was on ESPN duty for the NFL’s Monday Night Football game between the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills across the Hudson River in New Jersey.
It’s the second sporting event the couple has attended in the Big Apple in recent weeks, after watching the US Open men’s final with friends Patrick and Brittany Mahomes on September 8.
Earlier on Monday, Yankees manager Aaron Boone teased that two very special guests would attend the opening game of the ALCS.
The pop superstar is regularly seen in the stands at her boyfriend’s NFL games, but on Monday night she and the three-time Super Bowl winner swapped the football field for the diamond.
The Kansas City Chiefs star is enjoying a week of quality time with the singer during his team’s bye week.
The reigning champions won’t be in action until Sunday when they take on the San Francisco 49ers in a Super Bowl rematch.
Kelce has made sure to enjoy every moment he can spare with his girlfriend before she hits the road again on Friday for her Eras Tour.

The famous lovebirds enjoyed a romantic weekend in New York, visiting the city with the signer’s BFF Blake Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds for a double date.
The A-list foursome was spotted arriving at hotspot The Corner Store in New York City’s Soho neighborhood on Friday evening.
Some fans praised the four stars for their outfits, but Kelce got the most attention for his handlebar mustache and floppy hair.
Afterwards, Kelce was brutally mocked on social media when fans compared his appearance to Anchorman’s Ron Burgundy.
Others said he looked like another Will Ferrell character – Ricky Bobby from Talladega Nights – and some even claimed his mustache was reminiscent of those of adult film stars of the ’70s and ’80s.
Kelce and Swift continued the quartet’s night on the town with some alone time on a date night on their own Saturday.
The ‘Fortnight’ singer was spotted holding hands with the Kansas City Chiefs as they arrived at Torrisi restaurant, also in New York City.

Their string of date nights in New York City also comes two weeks after they survived the alleged breach of a leaked “contract” several weeks ago.
The contract is widely believed to be fake, and Kelce’s camp quickly called it “completely false and fabricated,” but claimed the duo would announce their separation on September 28.
The separation date set in the alleged contract has now passed without any fuss and without any news of a split.
Since then, Swift was spotted at some of Kelce’s games and proved that despite the split speculation, their romance is still going strong.
The couple also gave a PDA-packed presentation at the men’s final of the US Open at Flushing Meadows last month.
Swift and Kelce couldn’t keep their hands off each other as the pop star even serenaded her friend with a rendition of Darkness, “I Believe In A Thing Called Love.”
But tonight, Swift and Kelce are apparently trading Queens for the Bronx because they want to enjoy more of the sports scene New York has to offer.
After failing to reach the postseason a year ago, the Yankees advanced to the American League Championship Series for the second time in three seasons and for the fourth time since 2017.

They will now begin their quest to reach the World Series for the first time since 2009 at home in Yankee Stadium ahead of Kelce and Swift.
If Boone’s team can take down the Guardians, who outlasted Detroit in a thrilling ALDS, to set up the series, an all-New York World Series could be in the offing.
The New York Mets will take on superstar Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS in an attempt to end their own nine-year World Series drought. The Mets evened the series against the Dodgers on Monday with a 7-3 victory in Game 2 of the series.
