DEADLINE 3 p.m. today to get Brewers Jesús Aguilar, Twins Eddie Rosario into all-star game
The Milwaukee Brewers have three all-stars … so far.
One of those, Christian Yelich, got some revenge on his old team Tuesday, going 3-for-5 with four RBI in leading Milwaukee to an 8-4 win over Miami.
The Brewers other two all-stars are newcomer Lorenzo Cain in the outfield and second-year player, relief pitcher Josh Hader.
NL-leading Milwaukee could, however, send a fourth player to the July 17 all-star game in D.C. if they get enough fans to help.
As of Tuesday, Jesus Aguilar was leading the fan vote for the final spot on the all-star roster. The Brewers have also combined efforts with the Minnesota Twins to vote catcher Eddie Rosario into the game, stating, “Let’s put the Border Battle aside and have a Border Ballot! Vote Jesús Aguilar and Eddie Rosario to represent the Midwest in the All-Star Game!”
