The rookie catcher for the Boston Red Sox Single-A affiliate Greenville Drive will be behind home plate for the first pitch of the South Atlantic League All-star game in Asheville, North Carolina.
The 23 year old Prochyshen is currently batting .285 with two home runs and 28 RBIs in 51 games.
Game time is set for 5:30 local time.
