Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson is having himself a year.
After winning a World Series ring last month, Swanson purchased a special diamond to propose to girlfriend Mallory Pugh on Thursday.
He got down on one knee in the doorway of a decorated home, where Pugh — a USWNT player, who won a FIFA World Cup title in 2019 — was met with a massive balloon arch.
The MLB star and soccer sensation shared the news in separate Instagram posts.
“Mr. and Mrs. Swanson coming soon,” he captioned a photo that showed him proposing to Pugh. “I LOVE YOU DANSBY,” she wrote in the comments.
Pugh shared the same photo, along with a closeup shot of her oval-cut diamond, with the caption, “Forever with you.”
After Swanson popped the question, the couple boarded a private plane to Miami with friends. The couple shared photos to their Instagram Stories that featured Pugh modeling her engagement ring.
Swanson, Pugh and co. celebrated with a sushi dinner at Miami’s swanky KYU restaurant.
The pair has been dating since late 2017, and were introduced by Jace Peterson, Swanson’s former Braves teammate (now Brewers second baseman). Peterson is married to Pugh’s sister, Brianna.
Pugh was in attendance during Atlanta’s Game 6 win over the Astros to clinch the World Series on Nov. 2.
