Baseball's two Max Muncys faced off on Tuesday night

There are two different players in professional baseball with the name Max Muncy, and on Tuesday night, the stars aligned for them to be playing against each other in the same game.

One of the players named Max Muncy is a star for the Los Angeles Dodgers and has spent the past seven years as a key part of their roster.

He has been sidelined since May due to injury and is currently on a rehab assignment in the minor leagues, playing for the Triple-A Oklahoma City Baseball Club.

The other Max Muncy, a first-round pick in 2021, is a prospect in the Oakland A's farm system and is playing for the Las Vegas Aviators.

With Oklahoma City visiting Las Vegas on Tuesday night, it was the first-ever Max Muncy vs. Max Muncy matchup.

It is not totally unheard of for there to be players in a sport with the same name at the same time, but it's not common. Max Muncy is also not a common name. So the fact they both play the same sport, with the same age range, have both advanced to this high of a level and get to play against each other is a fun piece of trivia.

It also might not be their last matchup. The A's Muncy has rapidly climbed through their farm system and is having a great year this season. He might have a major league future and create more Muncy vs. Muncy games at the next level.
