Belt: Giants' 1-2 punch of Bum, Cueto 'the best in baseball'

Giants first baseman Brandon Belt is in his first MLB All-Star Game in his sixth big league season after winning the Final Vote by the fans. Belt is being accompanied by teammates Buster Posey, Madison Bumgarner, and Johnny Cueto.

As the Giants sport the best record in baseball (57-33) at the All-Star break, Belt sent praise to San Francisco's All-Star arms.

"There would be a lot of arguments over this, but in my opinion it's the best in baseball," Belt said on the duo of Bumgarner and Cueto.

With Bumgarner ineligible to pitch, Cueto received the nod to start on the bump for the National League in the Midsummer Classic.
