Some of the biggest names at the country music festival in Nashville were World Series-winning third baseman for the Houston Astros Alex Bregman and his wife, Reagan Bregman. Reagan's verified Instagram account documented the couple's voyage to the country music capital.

In one image, a black-tie-clad Alex is seen taking a selfie with his attractive wife. The CMAs stage is then shown in Reagan's Stories from a front-row center perspective. The hosts Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning can be seen in the final image.

Mookie Betts once represented the Boston Red Sox. He made MLB history in 2018 by becoming the first player to win the Most Valuable Player, Silver Slugger, Gold Glove, Batting Title, and World Series in the same season while playing for the Red Sox.

The Red Sox selected Betts in the first round of the 2011 draft and he made his MLB debut in the 2014 campaign, playing both second base and the outfield.

Mookie Betts started out playing center field for the Red Sox in 2014 before switching to right field in 2016. Betts has been compared to Dustin Pedroia, a former Red Sox teammate, because Pedroia is a relatively short-term natural second baseman with a high contact rate and a high level of production when pulling the ball.
