The Texas Rangers made history Tuesday night at T-Mobile Park in Seattle.

In the second inning of the Major League All-Star Game, all six Rangers All-Stars were on the field at the same when right-hander Nathan Eovaldi started the inning.

He joined the five Rangers teammates who started – catcher Jonah Heim, second baseman Marcus Semien, shortstop Corey Seager, third baseman Josh Jung and right fielder Adolis García. Semien, Seager, Heim and Jung were voted in as starters by fans.

The National League won 3-2, its first All-Star Game win since 2012.

According to Elias Sports Bureau, it's the first time one team has had six players on the field at the same time in an All-Star Game since Brooklyn Dodgers in 1951 and the third time all-time. The 1939 Yankees also pulled off the feat.

Those six Dodgers who played the eighth inning at Detroit's Briggs Stadium were pitcher Don Newcombe, catcher Roy Campanella, first baseman Gil Hodges, second baseman Jackie Robinson, shortstop Pee Wee Reese and center fielder Duke Snider.
