According to local authorities in Scottsdale, Arizona, the residence of the Diamondbacks player was broken into on the night of Tuesday, July 15, just as Marte was part of the National League's starting team in the mid-season classic. Police described the event as a "high-value residential robbery". Preliminary reports indicate that those responsible took advantage of the player's absence to steal jewelry and personal belongings of great value. Fortunately, there was no one in the house at the time of the crime. The Mars residence is located in a residential area confirmed by the records of the Maricopa County Assessor. Although precise details about what was stolen have not been revealed, nor have the suspects been identified, investigations are ongoing. This unfortunate event occurs amidst growing concern over robberies of high-profile athletes' properties, especially during tours or national events. The FBI and various professional leagues such as the NFL and NBA have warned about criminal networks that monitor these athletes' public schedules to commit robberies. During the All-Star Game, Marte hit a two-run double that helped his league win. But upon his return home, far from a celebration, the harsh news of the break-in awaited him.
