Shin-Soo Choo found out he was an All-Star for the first time in his career before Sunday's series finale against the Tigers.

The 14-year MLB veteran who turns 36 on Friday will represent the Texas Rangers at the All-Star Game in Washington DC on July 17.

He'll go into the All-Star break with the longest on-base streak since at least 2015 after reaching on a clutch, two-out, infield single in the ninth inning of Sunday's 3-0 win at Comerica Park.
