Sal Stewart Jr.'s girlfriend Natalie Espinosa dons zebra print bikini while enjoying cigar on a yacht at Billy's point

Sal Stewart Jr. debuted in the MLB for the Cincinnati Reds on September 1, providing an energetic spark to their push for a playoff spot. Though the Reds crashed out in the Wild Card series, Stewart created history, becoming the youngest player in franchise history to start a postseason game.

Earlier in the regular season, Stewart became the youngest Reds slugger to debut at first base in 117 Years. One person who has been thick and through with Stewart is his girlfriend, Natalie Espinosa. Along with Stewart's parents, Natalie was at the Great American Ball Park to watch his debut.

On Sunday, Stewart shared a snap of Natalie on his Instagram story. Donning a zebra-printed bikini, she sat on a yacht. She held a cigar in his right hand and a straw hat rested on her lap. Natalie also wore sports sunglasses.

The image was taken from the Billy Point, a location in Biscayne Bay, Florida, situated south of Elliott Key. Known for its beautiful turquoise water, the location is a destination for boaters.
