Jed Lowrie got snubbed from his first All-Star Game by a rookie who has played 63 games in his entire MLB career and is currently on the DL. I don't care if Lowrie is named as Torres' replacement; that won't fix this. That pick is a slap in the face to the A's and their fans.
— Alex Hall (@AlexHallAN) July 9, 2018- And Brett Anderson wins again for the A’s!
A's win 6-0. They're a season-high ten games over .500 at 50-40. Four consecutive series victories

- The current system has made something of a mockery of the American League all-star process.
