Andrew McCutchen's wife, Maria, throws him an All-Star party
Former Pirate Andrew McCutchen went to the All-Star game five times during his years in Black and Gold.
He hasn’t been back since 2015. And he probably wouldn’t have made it this year either as a member of the Phillies. Even though McCutchen had 10 home runs through June 3, he was hitting just .256.
Any shot McCutchen would’ve had at making the club was cut short when he suffered a knee injury on a fluke play last month.

However, while he is going through rehab at home, McCutchen’s wife, Maria, gave him an All-Star surprise. And the former MVP showed the world via social media.
Among the goods? Cake toppers, a giant “CUTCH,” balloons and some All-Star swag.
.@TheCutch22 may have to sit out this year's #AllStarGame, but his wife made sure that he wouldn't miss out on the experience.

That’s a nice gesture by Maria, who clearly understands how much her husband is missing the action in the field.
