It is still baseball season, which means that many of us are taking the opportunity to learn more about some of our favorite MLB players.

I don’t know about you, but I like to know more about my favorite athletes besides just their basic game statistics information.

It’s fun to learn about a player’s back story, what got them into baseball, and, of course, what their love life is like.

Many MLB players have met their partners and wives in really cute ways, and if you’re a sucker for a good sports star love story, here are a few MLB players’s wives and how their love stories began.

Aaron and Samantha Judge

Many assume that all MLB players date and marry celebrity models as soon as they enter the big leagues, but that isn’t always the case.

This adorable couple have known each other since their high school days!

Yankees star Aaron and his wife Samantha attended the same high school and college and reportedly dated on and off between the two.

Then, in 2021, they made everyone swoon when they officially wed in Hawaii. The high school sweethearts now live in New York City while Aaron works hard as the captain of the New York Yankees.

Alex and Reagan Bregman

Alex, the third baseman for the Houston Astros, met his adorable wife, Reagan, through a mutual friend. They unexpectedly attended the same dinner and, a few days later, found themselves on a first date! 

After going through a long-distance relationship for a while, the couple got engaged in 2020 and had a small wedding. Two years later, they brought their first baby, a son named Knox, into the world.

Justin Verlander and Kate Upton

One of the most famous couples in baseball is Justin and Kate, as they’re both superstars in their own regard. Justin is a pitcher who currently plays for the Houston Astros, but he was previously with the New York Mets and the Detroit Tigers, which was when he met model and actress Kate.

The two got married in a beautiful wedding in Tuscany in 2017, although just two days prior, Justin was competing in the World Series.

They are still happily married and have a five-year-old daughter named Genevive.

Mookie Betts and Brianna Hammonds

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Mookie has known his wife, Brianna, since their teenage years, making them another adorable couple.

They attended high school together and had a daughter in 2018 before announcing their engagement in 2021. 

They had a star-studded wedding in California later that year and still consider each other to be best friends. How cute is that?

Manny Machado and Yainee Alonso

This cute couple was introduced to each other through another MLB player! Yainee, the sister of former MLB player Yonder Alonso, met Manny, the famous San Diego Padres infielder, thanks to her brother.

The two began dating in 2011, married three years later, and have been together ever since.

While they keep their relationship fairly private, Manny has occasionally shared adorable pictures of his wife on Instagram, and they’re getting ready to celebrate their 10th anniversary in November.

The next time one of these players has an amazing season, it’s because they don’t only have talent, but they also have a great woman by their side.
