The entire city of Philadelphia exploded with happiness after the news that Phillies star Alec Bohm had officially proposed to his longtime girlfriend Erin Kate Dolan was confirmed this morning. The couple, who have been the center of attention throughout the 2025 season, finally closed the first chapter with a moment that made the entire sports world cry.
According to sources close to Bohm, the proposal had been planned for months, choosing Cape May Beach – where the two had their first vacation together – as the location. As the sun began to set over the water, the Phillies player walked up, holding a custom-designed ring shaped like a small diamond baseball.
A witness recounted: “He was visibly shaking, but his eyes were brighter than any star in the sky. When Erin said ‘Yes,’ everyone around clapped and screamed. It was truly the most beautiful moment I have ever witnessed.”
Erin Kate Dolan, a famous reporter for ESPN, could not hide her emotions. On her personal Instagram, she shared a photo of Bohm kneeling with a short caption: “Forever my teammate ❤️” – “Forever my teammate.” The post quickly went viral with more than 2 million likes in just a few hours, along with thousands of comments from fans and Bohm’s teammates.
Bryce Harper was one of the first to send his wishes: “Congratulations brother. A swing that hits someone’s heart is even more beautiful than a home run!” Meanwhile, coach Rob Thomson smiled when asked about this good news: “Alec is always calm, focused and humble. He deserves this happiness.”
The love between Alec and Erin began in 2023, when the two met in a live interview. Initially, they were just friends, but Bohm’s passion for baseball, sincerity and simple personality made Erin moved. The couple quickly became the most beloved figures in Philadelphia sports.
For Alec Bohm, 2025 was a year to remember: a postseason run of form, a deep run by the Phillies in the Championship, and now – he’s officially embarked on a new journey in life.
While fans are still sharing photos of the moment Bohm proposed, one comment line is repeated under every post:
“He didn’t just score a home run – he scored the biggest home run of his life.”
And perhaps, amid the cheers at Citizens Bank Park next season, when Bohm emerges from the tunnel, there will be a ring glinting on his finger – a testament to a love that has just “home run” forever.
