Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman’s wife Reagan spoke about the first time she met Alex and how they started dating. In a 2021 interview with “The Knot,” Reagan spoke about how she was initially not interested in meeting Bregman and how things unfolded for the couple:
"It was crazy because I didn't want to be [at dinner]. And then we went on a date, three or four days later."
Reagan recalled her first encounter with Bregman and said:
"One of my girlfriends was dating his friend. While working for Google, she drove to Houston to spend time with friends for a weekend.”
Bregman spoke about his long-distance relationship due to work commitments and how it brought them closer to one another:
"When we both realized we were willing to sacrifice things to make things work, we realized it was it."
"She was driving back and forth every weekend, three hours there and back, waking up at 5 am to get to work. She was working her tail off and coming to see me."
Bregman was chosen by the Astros as the second choice in the first round of the 2015 MLB draft at the end of his junior year of college.
