Here are the AL All-Star Rosters:
The Rays are very well-represented as usual with the 3 young guns, Espino, our double play combination, and a complete outfield (counting Clark as LF) plus the injured Julio Cedillo. This leaves only Yordan Alvarez, Bobby Witt Jr, Jhon Diaz and Keibert Ruiz as regulars who are
not going to the game.
In the NL:
Give it up for Matt Manning and especially Emerson Hancock.
Gleyber Torres beat Pete Alonso in the finals of the Home Run Derby 16-13.
As for the All-Star Game itself, the NL beat the AL 12-2 in 12 innings with a 10-run 12th. The AI left poor Simon Rosenblum-Larson in there to get pounded after burning through most of the staff. As for the Rays, Judson Fabian led off the game for the AL with a homer to dead center, Christian Little started and struck out a pair in a perfect inning, Alec Sachais and Blake Money each had perfect innings with 1 strikeout, and Daniel Espino pitched a scoreless inning although he put two men on. Fabian was the only Ray to get a hit, Gavin Lux started and was 0-2, Nate Clark started and was 0-3, while Jasson Dominguez was 0-3 as a sub and Ricky Widmar was 0-1 as a sub.
