MLB Announces Rosters for 2013 All-Star Game

The votes are in, they have been tallied, and Saturday evening the league announced the players voted into the 2013 MLB All-Star Game at Citi Field in New York.

With the way people tend to love the long ball it should come as no surprise that Baltimore Orioles slugger Chris Davis lead the way in votes with 8,272,243. Fans continued to show the Orioles some love by voting in two other players to the starting line-up, shortstop JJ Hardy and centerfielder Adam Jones.

It's only the third time that the Orioles have had three players voted into the starting line-up of the All-Star game ('71 and '97).

Each roster is likely going to change because of injuries and whatever other excuse a player can think of to skip the game, but for now this is what the rosters look like.
