National League All-Stars at American League All-Stars
Projected Pitchers:
NL: Matt Cain (1.97 ERA, 10-5)
AL: Jair Jurrjens (3.06 ERA, 11-1)
It's that time of year again. That time that fans clamor for tickets, and beg for a piece of the week long festivities. It's the time of year when two PBL dream-teams take the field together, and lock horns in magnificent, glorious battle. It's the 2012 PBL All-Star Game.
Matt Cain will lead the way for the National squad, having pitched himself to a 10-5 record with a 1.97 ERA (which says something about the Giants' offensive prowess). Meanwhile, in the other dugout, Jair Jurrjens leads his American forces, boasting an 11-1 record, despite a relatively bloated ERA of 3.06 (which says something about the Rays offense). Both are stars, and will start the showdown the right way.
Funny enough, if you rewind back to last year, both of this year's All-Star starters would have been in San Francisco uniforms. Madison Bumgarner (2.72 ERA, 9-2) was voted in to make his first All-Star appearance and start, but pitched recently this Sunday, and is reportedly unavailable to make the start. He may, however, be called upon in a time of need, should the game reach extra innings.
Here are the starting lineups for both squads:
American League
C Joe Mauer MIN
1B Carlos Pena BAL
2B Ian Kinsler TEX
3B Gordon Beckham CWS
SS Derek Jeter NYY
OF Marvin Webb TB
OF Marlon Byrd BOS
OF Julio Borbon TEX
DH Adam Dunn DET
National League
C Chris Iannetta COL
1B Albert Pujols STL
2B Dustin Ackley ATL
SS Jose Reyes NYM
3B Matt Gamel MIL
OF Shane Victorino PHI
OF Matt Holiday STL
OF Chris Carter NYM
DH To Be Announced
Let the festivities begin!!!
And here's an added bonus:
Pick a Beer Batter, in addition to your MVP. If your Beer Batter hits at least one home run during the game, you win an additional point!
