Faye Webster Shares Video for New Song “A Dream With a Baseball Player”: Watch

Faye Webster is releasing her new album I Know I’m Funny haha this Friday (June 25) via Secretly Canadian. Today, she’s shared a Swinsky-directed video for the new song “A Dream With a Baseball Player.” The video and song are about her crush on the Atlanta Braves player Ronald Acuña Jr. Webster has also announced 2022 tour dates. Find those and watch the video below.

“Off tour I spent so much of my time watching baseball that I thought I wanted to be a baseball player,” Webster said in a statement. “But I’m not, so I guess the next best thing was having a crush on one. I guess this song explains what having a crush feels like. Having made up conversations with them in your head even though you don't speak their language, wearing their team jersey every day, things that make you feel closer to this person that you don’t know at all. But I sang at the Braves game, and they let us meet so I think I got that one out of my system.”
