The 91st Midsummer Classic will be held Tuesday at Coors Field in Denver where the action-packed week will include five Boston Red Sox players.

Making history this week, Xander Bogaerts and Rafael Devers will be the first Red Sox players to start an All-Star Game together at shortstop and third base, respectively.
J.D. Martinez will be making his fourth career All-Star Game appearance. The veteran has totaled 18 home runs and is hitting .303 with a .926 OPS so far in the 2021 season. He ranks seventh in the AL with 62 RBI.
Nathan Eovaldi will make his presence known at his first career All-Star Game. Grinding his way to the top of the Red Sox rotation, Eovaldi earned his spot on this year’s roster by tying for second in the AL with nine wins. He currently owns a firm 3.66 ERA and 2.55 FIP.
Veteran right-hander Matt Barnes also was selected as an All-Star for the first time in his career. He currently is 4-2 and has 19 saves with a 2.68 ERA in 37 appearances this season. He signed a two-year extension contract Sunday with the Red Sox.
The 2021 All-Star Game is definitely one worth watching for Red Sox fans.
