Cole also shared photographs of some epic moments from the game and wrote:

"Honored to get this chance to represent the Yankees and start for the American League. And very grateful to share this day with my family."

Gerrit Cole and wife Amy Crawford fell in love while attending UCLA

Amy was the captain of the university's softball team, while Cole was a standout varsity baseball player. As elite amateur athletes at UCLA, they would frequent the gym simultaneously. That is how Gerrit developed a crush on Amy and they started dating in 2010 or 2011.

They got married in November 2016. The couple chose to have the wedding at the Ritz-Carleton Hotel in Santa Barbara, California, as they are both Southern California locals.

In 2020, Gerrit and Amy welcomed their first baby boy, while Everett, their second boy was born in January of this year.

Cole had previously played for the Houston Astros and the Pittsburgh Pirates. In the first round of the 2008 MLB draft, the New York Yankees picked Cole. Instead of signing, Cole chose to enroll at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where he played baseball for the UCLA Bruins in college.

Cole belongs to the UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame's class of 2022. With 326 and 257 strikeouts, respectively, he holds the franchise record for the most strikeouts in a single season with the Astros (2019) and the Yankees (2022).
