During the Toronto Blue Jays’ post-season journey, young siblings Hugo, 10, and Meredith Fu, 8, have been diligently pursuing answers to burning questions from Blue Jays enthusiasts. In a recent Instagram video, Meredith quizzed outfielder Davis Schneider about the longevity of his moustache, to which Schneider replied that he would keep it as long as the team kept winning.
The siblings have been privileged to conduct face-to-face interviews with key Blue Jays figures, including ACLS MVP Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and pitcher Kevin Gausman, along with other MLB stars. Meredith described the experience as enjoyable and shared insights from players like pitcher Chris Bassitt on learning from setbacks.
Their interest in interviewing MLB players sparked during a Blue Jays game when Meredith was five, leading to their parents supporting the endeavor. They meticulously prepare for interviews by researching players’ profiles the night before a game using the team’s official app.
Thrilled to engage with their idols, the siblings cherish the opportunity, especially now that the Blue Jays have advanced to the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Hugo expressed his elation, claiming he felt like he was levitating when the team secured victory.
Among the memorable interviews, Meredith highlighted a conversation with Blue Jays pitcher Chris Bassitt, who emphasized the value of learning from failures. As the World Series unfolds, Hugo encouraged the players not to lose hope, emphasizing their dedication and preparedness for this defining moment.
