Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are having a ball of their coparenting journey.
The friendly exes were spotted attending a baseball game together at Boston’s Fenway Park on Friday, July 11.
Footage shared via MLB’s X account showed Affleck, 52, and Garner, 53 sitting front row in the gang as they watched the Boston Red Sox face off against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Two of their children — Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13 — joined their parents for the family outing. (The couple’s eldest daughter Violet didn’t attend the sporting game.)
“Great Red Sox family right there, Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner and their kids,” NESN commentator Dave O’Brien noted as NESN footage captured the occasion.
Affleck and Garner were one among Hollywood’s most famous golden couples once they exchanged vows in 2005. The duo were married for a decade before splitting in 2015 and finalizing their divorce three years later.
The actors have been known to maintain things amicable despite calling it quits and luxuriate in a harmonious coparenting dynamic.
“I’m really lucky that I even have a extremely good coparent and partner in Jennifer Garner, the children’ mom, who’s wonderful and great and we work together well,” Affleck praised in a March interview with GQ.

An insider exclusively spoke about this dynamic with Us Weekly in August 2024, sharing that Garner and Affleck regard their children as their top priority.
“Ben and Jennifer are friends, they usually have an important coparenting relationship,” a source told Us.
The pair have a “mutual understanding that their kids come first,” the insider noted, adding that the exes “also get along rather well.”

Meanwhile, the Pearl Harbor star has gushed about his role as a dad through the years.
“I’m head over heels in love,” Affleck said about fatherhood during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in September 2010. “I even have the very best family … I couldn’t be luckier. I actually have come right to the place where I used to be alleged to be. You’ve got to knock wood. I’ve gone around and I’ve taken some rights and lefts and located myself at a spot that is basically wonderful, and that I’m really grateful for.”
The actor also has publicly given Garner credit for being a talented and loving mother to their three children.
“Jen is a superhero mom,” he told E! News in March 2016. “She is a tremendous mother and I’m really lucky to have her as a partner to coparent these kids with. We try our greatest, we put them first and that’s what we do.”
