The Texas Rangers have had a lot to celebrate this season.

They’re one of the best teams in baseball, and this weekend they sent six representatives to the All-Star Game in Seattle: pitcher Nathan Eovoldi, catcher Jonah Heim, second baseman Marcus Semien, shortstop Corey Seager, third baseman Josh Jung, and right fielder Adolis García.

Not only were the Rangers the most-represented team at the All Star Game, they made a little MLB history when all six players took the field for the American League team at the same time.

According to Elias Sports Bureau, this was the first time one team had six players on the field at the same time in an All-Star Game since the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1951!

The Rangers became the third team all-time to accomplish such a feat, the Yankees did the same in 1939.

Despite the Rangers star-power, the National League ended up winning the game 3-2, its first All-Star Game victory since 2012.
