The best of the best baseball players gathered in Arlington, Texas, earlier this week for Major League Baseball’s All-Star week. The week culminated in the mid-summer classic All-Star baseball game, pitting the National League and the American League against each other. Before they put on their special uniforms, the players brought their families down a red carpet. While these athletes may dress up on game days, their fits are usually more casual. Yesterday, the stars brought it all.
The evening’s most prominent trends included light tan suits (to balance the triple-digit temperature in Texas), bright-colored suit jackets, and cowboy hats — perfect for Arlington. Some of the players even included fun personal touches both in their red-carpet looks and their uniforms on the field.
Here are the biggest fashion trends from the 2024 All-Star Game Red Carpet and the players that hit a homerun with their ‘fits.
Colorful Suits
Jarren Duran
Boston Red Sox Outfielder
The first-time All-Star stunned in a pink and orange Gentleman’s Playbook suit. The MVP of the All-Star game was the talk of the carpet. The inside of his jacket said “F*ck ’em. Still Alive” and featured an All-Star patch. Though Duran didn’t think he could pull the suit off, Pedro Martinez, former Red Sox pitcher and “fashion judge” for the MLB Network, named him best dressed.
Kirby Yates
Texas Rangers Pitcher
Yates wore a maroon and white flowered Gentleman’s Playbook jacket with matching maroon pants. His family wore varying shades of pink to complement his look.
Ketel Marte
Arizona Diamondbacks Second Baseman
Marte showed out for the carpet in an eye-catching blue double-breasted suit. He was joined by his wife, Elisa Guerrero, who wore a matching blue gown, and the rest of his family, who each opted for white ensembles.
Alec Bohm
Philadelphia Phillies Third Baseman
Bohm, first-time All-Star and starting third baseman for the NL, wore a light turquoise silk Gentleman’s Playbook suit with white floral patterns over a simple white t-shirt. The inside of his jacket included patches for all of the minor league teams he had played.
While discussing his look, red carpet hosts Greg Amsinger and Harold Reynolds commented that Bohm took a different approach to his style than his teammate Bryce Harper. “When you got hair like that, you can’t wear a cowboy hat,” one host said. “No, you gotta let it flow,” the other host responded.
Juan Soto
New York Yankees Outfielder
The Dominican AL starter wore a light blue suit on the red carpet. He told the hosts of the show that he chose the blue because it was “light,” “smooth,” and “fresh,” all necessary for the insane heat in Texas. The suit was custom made by designers in the Dominican Republic. His best style tip? “Just be fancy.”
Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
Toronto Blue Jays First Baseman
The stylish Canadian first baseman showed off the patterned interior of his purple suit by Milano Exchange. He paired the statement suit with a black Louis Vuitton belt and gold jewelry.

Neutral Tones

Shohei Ohtani
Los Angeles Dodgers Designated Hitter
Ohtani wore a simple brown suit over a white shirt. He said his dog, Decoy, was the inspiration for the color. When he showed the inside of his jacket, the All-Star revealed drawings of his Dutch Kooikerhondje. Former basketball star, Mamiko Tanaka, wife of Ohtani, stunned in a simple white gown.

Cowboy Couture

Harper thought it was important to match the vibe of the city, so the starting first baseman for the NL walked the carpet wearing cowboy boots, lightwash jeans and a large belt buckle, a light white shirt, and a cowboy hat.
