While shortstop Manny Machado might be the most likely Orioles representative for the 2018 All-Star Game at Nationals Park on July 17, he could be joined by a former Oriole now playing in the National League.
The Atlanta Braves’ Nick Markakis trails only the Washington Nationals’ Bryce Harper in outfielder balloting with 494,206 votes. Harper has 498,189 votes, according to an update provided Monday afternoon by MLB.
Markakis, an Orioles first-round pick in 2003 who left after the 2014 season, has never played in All-Star game during his 13-year career.
