The rosters for the 89th Major League Baseball All-Star Game were revealed Sunday. The game will be played July 17 in Washington, D.C. Watch on FOX at 6:30 p.m.

The Red Sox, Astros and Indians will each have five players on the AL squad.

On the NL side, the host Washington Nationals will have three players representing the team in the July 17 game.

Cubs starter Jon Lester was named to his fifth All-Star team on Sunday night and it's fitting that the left-hander will be taking his favorite player to watch in Javier Baez and his personal catcher, Willson Contreras.

The Cardinals have Mies Mikolas as one of the pitchers selected by MLB. Matt Carpenter is on the ballot for fans to vote, so Cardinals fans should register their votes.
