Good morning. I'm Rachel Martin.
The MLB All-Star Game announced its starting lineup, and it's a family affair. The National League picked two brothers. Willson Contreras is a catcher for the Cubs.

Their team will square off against the American League next week. I guess baseball is, indeed, in their blood.
