ANAHEIM, Calif. — The #SendSegura campaign can now be called #SentSegura. The efforts of the Mariners’ marketing depart, the players and coaching staff and the fans of the team across the country have put shortstop Jean Segura into the 2018 Major League Baseball All-Star game.
Thanks to an aggressive approach on social media that included giveaways, promotions, videos, a SeguraFest at Safeco Field and more, Segura won MLB’s final vote, tallying the most votes of the five finalists, beating out Andrew Benintendi of the Red Sox, Giancarlo Stanton of the Yankees, Eddie Rosario of the Twins and Andrelton Simmons of the Angels.
