It’s been an amazing few days out here in San Diego, California! I’ve been out here at PETCO Park covering the Boston Red Sox representatives at the 2016 Major League Baseball All-Star Game.
I had my hands full, as this was the tenth and final All-Star game for Red Sox designated hitter, David Ortiz. That made for some nice moments. We also had three of our youngest and brightest – shortstop Xander Bogaerts, right fielder Mookie Betts, and center fielder Jackie Bradley Jr. – all who made the All-Star starting lineup. It was nonstop shooting for me from the beginning to the end of the day.
This was the first All-Star Game that I’ve shot, and it was a really fun experience for me. It was great to document our team, but also to meet and see all the other photographer and team photographers there covering the game. It’s a reunion, of sorts, for us baseball team photographers.
Here are some images from the day. A big thank you to the Boston Red Sox for making this possible!
