Chicago White Sox left-hander Chris Sale is ready to fire it up for an inning tonight for the American League squad in the MLB All-Star Game, while San Francisco Giants righty Johnny Cueto will get the ball for the National League.
Some more on tonight's starting pitchers, from Sarah Langs of ESPN Stats & Information. First some notes on Cueto:
• Cueto is the third Giants pitcher to start the game in the past 10 seasons, following Tim Lincecum (2009) and Matt Cain (2012).
