New York Yankees' Nestor Cortes and Jose Trevino stole the show at this week's MLB All-Star Game in Los Angeles. They were stars both on and off the field. The Yankees representatives brought a little bit of that New York swagger to Los Angeles.
Before the game on Tuesday, the players, along with their families and friends, were invited to attend the star-studded red carpet event. The All-Stars had the chance to show off their personalities and the New York boys did not disappoint.
Nestor Cortes, a fan favorite among Yankees fans, has emerged as a rising star for the Yankees organization this season. The same confidence he takes to the mound was replicated in his bold, flashy, and eye-catching fashion choices on the red carpet.
Cortes showed us there's more to the man than just his pitching abilities. Whether it was his mustache, gold shoes, the custom jacket lining, or his "Nasty Nestor" chain, fans couldn't stop talking about the Yankees star.

Even fans of opposing teams had to tip their caps to Cortes' new look.
With six Yankees selected to the All-Star Game this season, Cortes had plenty of company in Los Angeles.
Jose Trevino is the man behind the plate who has guided Cortes through this exceptional season. The catcher was selected for his first All-Star Game this season and didn't shy away from the spotlight. Trevino attended the event in his own unique style with one little twist. He was accompanied by his son in a matching suit.
Star pitcher Gerrit Cole and outfielder Aaron Judge rounded out the list of well-dressed Yankees stars.
Cole was all praise when discussing his teammates' fashion choices. He even went a little overboard when asked about Jose Trevino.
Los Angeles is known as one of the fashion capitals of the world. On this occasion, though, it was the New York Yankees that came to town and took over the show.
The Yankees currently lead the American League East with a 64-38 record, 13 games above the Tampa Bay Rays. It's nice to see their players take a break from the day-to-day grind of the regular season and let loose. If the players look good off the field, hopefully that same confidence will lead to them performing well on the field.
The All-Star week provided a vital break for players and managers to rest and regroup. The New York Yankees will hope to continue their form in the second half of the season with the goal of winning their first World Series since 2009.
