Ben Affleck played the doting family man as he joined ex Jennifer Garner and their kids at a baseball game in Boston on Friday.
The Oscar-winning actor, 52 – whose ex-wife Jennifer Lopez recently released a revenge song post-divorce – attended a Red Sox game during his visit to his home state of Massachusetts.
Seated with Garner, 53, at Fenway Park, the actor was accompanied by two of their children: Fin, 16, and Samuel, 13. However, their eldest, Violet, 19, wasn’t at the game.
Affleck and the 13 Going On 30 star were married from 2005 until their divorce was finalized in 2018, but they have continued to maintain a positive co-parenting relationship.
Ben kept it casual for the outing in a tan button up and additionally sported a green Boston Red Sox cap on top of his head.
Jennifer also showed her support by wearing a short-sleeved shirt with red and white stripes – which are some of the team’s colors.

Her long locks were pulled back into a simple ponytail, preventing any loose strands from falling onto her face.
The former couple sat in between their two children as they watched the Red Sox take on the Tampa Bay Rays.
The family held lighthearted conversations during the family outing – and at one point, also appeared on a jumbotron inside the ballpark.
Affleck was born in California, but relocated with his family to Massachusetts where they eventually settled in the city of Cambridge – which is just north west of the city of Boston.
Despite their split, both Ben and Garner have maintained a positive relationship while raising their three children.
Last month in June, the actress – who is currently dating John Miller – shared a Father’s Day tribute to her ex-husband.
At the time, she uploaded a rare throwback photo of the Gone Girl star as one of their children – who had been a newborn – rested on his chest.
In text added below the sweet picture, Jennifer typed out: ‘Happy Father’s Day to 3 people’s favorite landing spot.’

The pair have also been spotted together on numerous occasions, such as when they reunited to pick up their son Samuel from the airport last month.
Earlier in March, Affleck also made loving remarks towards Garner during an interview with GQ.
He reflected on his divorce from Jennifer Lopez as well as his bond with Garner following their own split.
‘I’m really lucky that I have a really good co-parent and partner in Jennifer Garner, the kids’ mom, who’s wonderful and great and we work together well,’ Affleck told the outlet.
He also discussed how both he and Garner have navigated through fame and stayed honest with their kids.
‘We used to have a thing, my ex-wife and I, when they would see something on a supermarket stand,’ Ben recalled.
‘We would say, well, “You know this isn’t always true because if it were, you would have 15 brothers or sisters or whatever the number of stories is where they said that your mom was pregnant.”‘
Affleck added, ‘I know what’s going on in my life. And also, really more importantly, my kids know.’

Around the same time, the former couple were also seen hugging as they celebrated their son’s 13th birthday.
However, Garner continues to move on with her romance with John Miller and it was reported in April that he is ‘basically living’ with the actress, a source told Us Weekly.
Affleck received support from his ex-wife amid his split from Lopez and he notably spent the holidays with Garner and their children late last year.
It was revealed earlier in January that both he and the On The Floor songstress settled their divorce – after she had filed in August 2024 on their second wedding anniversary.
Lopez has been keeping busy and recently debuted six new songs at an exclusive listening party for 30 lucky fans this month – with one track seemingly referencing to her divorce from Ben.
One of the songs that she showed fans was titled Wreckage Of You – and a guest in attendance by the name of Edgardo Luis Rivera opened up about the song while talking to Us Weekly.
He said it is a ‘pop ballad that she told us she cowrote and recorded two weeks ago. She said she was lying in bed after a long day of tour rehearsals when the idea of the song came to her.’
Edgardo further expressed, ‘She mentioned how last year was a very difficult time for her both personally and professionally. She had to cancel her tour and really focus on herself.’

Another fan who had attended the listening party offered their thoughts on Wreckage Of Me.
They said it is a ‘very emotional, empowering song about walking away from a relationship and coming out a stronger person.’
Lopez also played an additional five songs which were titled: Birthday, Free, Up All Night, Save Me Tonight and Regular.
She also performed the revenge track as she kicked off her international summer tour Up All Night in Spain.
In video footage of the singer as she took to the stage, Lopez opened up about the song while talking to the crowd.
‘This is a song that is a new song that I want to sing for the first time tonight that came to me when I was up all night one night. Shall we sing this one for the people?’
Some of the lyrics to Wreckage Of You included: ‘The love I want, the love I need, it starts in me/Now I found my way here I’m gonna stay there.

‘Thank you for the scars you left on my heart, was showing me that stars shine brighter in the dark/I won’t fall apart because of who we are, but your broken parts.’
Jennifer also belted out on stage: ‘Because of you, I am stronger, wiser/Better than I’ve ever been.’
The star additionally announced in May that she is set to return to Las Vegas for an upcoming residency also called Up All Night Live.
She will take to the stage at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace on select dates beginning from December 30 through March of next year.
