The 1945-19003 Milwaukee Brewers 'first base player, Jesús Aguilar won the voters' preference in the final vote who chooses the last player in each league for the match of the stars of the MLB to be held Tuesday, July 17 in Washington.

Major League Baseball made the announcement on Thursday, and noted that Aguilar got 20,229,498 votes to overcome Trea Turner (ss, Washington Nationals), Brandon Belt (1b , San Francisco Giants), Matt Carpenter (3b, Cardinals of St. Louis) and Max Muncy (3b, Los Angels Dodgers).

He is the second highest total in this category of voting behind the 20.8 million who took third baseman Justin Turner (Dodgers) in 2017.

The player first goal started the season as a substitute and after a few injuries several players gave him time to show his talent. At the moment, he is fighting with 23 points in the National League and is the main point of reference of the team.

For the American League, Jean Segura, the Seattle Mariners Dominican short-stop was chosen.

Aguilar has eight Venezuelans in the game of the stars, equaling the record of the participants obtained in 2014. José Altuve, Wilson Ramos and Willson Contreras were selected by the voters. Salvador Pérez, Eugenio Suarez, Felipe Rivero and Gleyber Torres remained in reserve.

Al Home Run Derby

His appointment to the Washington event earned him an extra prize: participating in the Home Run Derby and being eliminated with Rhys Hoskins (Philadelphia Phillies).

Since Aguilar was nominated, his team created a #WebelieveinJesus that generated a lot of enthusiasm and even memes
