Since arriving in Atlanta in 1966, the Braves have had 143 selections to baseball’s Midsummer Classic.

This year, outfielder Ender Inciarte will make his first All-Star team, representing Atlanta in Tuesday's game in Miami.

Before Inciarte, the last Braves position player All-Star was Freddie Freeman, who made the team in 2013 and again in 2014. It’s the third consecutive season the Braves have had the minimum one All-Star. Their only All-Stars the past two seasons were pitchers Julio Teheran in 2016 and Shelby Miller in 2015.
