Walker Buehler’s Wife Captures a Sweet Moment
On his Instagram story, Buehler was seen sharing a sweet moment with his daughter on the field. The photo was captioned “Running the bases” by his dear wife, McKenzie.
Since they were teenagers, Walker Buehler and his wife, McKenzie Marcinek, have been together. Although they had initially met in kindergarten, the couple didn’t begin communicating until the eighth grade.
The couple were married in December 2021 after becoming engaged in November 2020. In February 2024, over three years after their marriage, the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Finley.
Walker Buehler and Will Smith, two former Los Angeles Dodgers teammates, auctioned off the 2024 World Series’ final out ball earlier this month.
The sale was a collaboration between the Buehler Family Foundation, founded by Walker and McKenzie Buehler, and the Catching Hope Foundation, founded by Will and Cara Smith.
To support continuing relief efforts for victims of the Los Angeles fires, all earnings will be donated to the Catching Hope Foundation. On March 13, the Memorabilia Network sponsored the online auction, which included a $150,000 opening offer. The ball sold for a total of $414,000 when the bidding ended on April 5.
Buehler’s final throw while with the Dodgers was the knuckle curve he fired to wrap up the team’s ninth World Series victory. He is off to a difficult start in his first two outings of 2025 after agreeing to a one-year, $21.05 million contract with the Boston Red Sox in the winter.
Despite the difficult start, all the hard work paid off on Patriots Day against the White Sox. A couple of weeks ago, Buehler made sure he was ready when manager Alex Cora informed him that he would be starting at 11 a.m.
In order to avoid road restrictions around Fenway Park along the marathon route, he spent Sunday night at a motel close to the ballpark. He got up at 6:45 a.m. in order to arrive at Fenway by 7:15 a.m. and began his pre-game routine.
All of the planning paid off as the Red Sox defeated the White Sox 4-2 in the game, giving him his best start to date for Boston and the longest start he’s had in three years. It was the first Patriots Day victory for the Red Sox since 2021.
