MLB.com | Thomas Harrigan: Giancarlo Stanton was voted in to the All-Star Game as a starter for the fifth time in his career and first as a Yankee, fending off a late challenge in the fan votes from the Toronto’s George Springer. Stanton joins his teammate Aaron Judge, the AL’s overall vote leader, in the starting outfield alongside Mike Trout, and he hinted that he might participate in the Home Run Derby as well. Unsurprisingly, Jose Trevino’s bid to start behind the plate came up shy against Toronto’s Alejandro Kirk, who cruised to a win, so if Trevino makes the squad, it will be as a reserve.
