The Boston Red Sox have been playing some great baseball this year, moving to nine games over .500 after taking two out of three from the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium over the weekend.
On Sunday, the MLB announced the rest of the All-Star lineups, and Boston had three players selected - third baseman Rafael Devers, starting pitcher Tanner Houck and outfielder Jarren Duran.
Before the series finale, Red Sox manager Alex Cora shared that special message with his team, as he announced to the clubhouse which three would be spending the break in Arlington, Texas.
We're not crying.

It was an amazing moment for all three players, especially Houck and Duran, who were both named All-Stars for the first time in their careers.
Both Houck and Duran's roles were up in the air entering the 2024 season, and to see just how well they've performed, it's been truly amazing.
