The two men agree that the American League's All-Star starter should be the pitcher from theRays. There is a time and a place.
For the second year in a row, the Los Angeles Angels' Shohei Ohtani was elected to the American League All-Star team as a pitcher and hitter.
The designated hitter for the American League team was selected by MLB as a pitcher. The All-Star Game will be held at Dodgers Stadium on July 19 and he will be showcasing his talents there.
The Dodgers starter will be joining him in Los Angeles. While William Contreras was voted in as a designated hitter by his peers, he was also an MLB selection.
William will join Willson in the starting lineup after Willson was voted in by fans as the NL's starting catcher. The last time two brothers started in an all-star game was in 1992.
Willson said that they were just two kids who wanted to make it to the big leagues. I think it's a dream. A lot of brothers would like to do the same. The best time of my life will be when I can play with my brother against each other.
When the Atlanta Braves and Chicago Cubs played each other in the regular season, the brothers faced each other for the first time in their big league careers. Over the next few days, he will be removed from the roster.
The Houston Astros have five All-Star selections, including 39 year-old righty Justin Verlander, who missed all of last season after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
Verlander has made an all-star team nine times.
Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt are both on the team. Cole made his fifth All-Star team, while Hader made his fourth.
Nine pitchers and two catchers are first time all-stars for the American League. There are 12 first time selections on the NL team.
The pitching staff for the American League includes Ohtani, Verlander, Cole and other right-handed pitchers. The lefties made the team.
Jose Ramirez is one of the reserves in the American League.
The outfielders for the All-Star game are Andrew Benintendi, Kyle Tucker, George Springer, and Yordan Alonso.
The NL pitchers are Sandy Alcantara, David Bednar, Corbin Burnes, Luis Castillo, and Tony Gonsolin.
Fried and Mantiply are left-handed.
NL reserve infielders include Pete Alonso. Kyle Schwarber is one of the NL's outfielders.
The starting lineups for the game were announced on Friday in Los Angeles. The two players were commissioner picks.
