All-Star Game Lineup – Cubs Dominate the Infield
As we’ve known, the Chicago Cubs are sending seven players to All-Star game on Tuesday (technically six, since Dex is injured). MLB just officially announced the starters for both the National and American League squads.
It will be a Cubs kind of day tomorrow, with the entire starting infield being all Cubs. Johnny Cueto gets the start at pitcher for the National League while Chris Sale is the starting pitcher for the AL.
Ben Zobrist is batting lead-off for the NL side, with Bryant hitting third just behind his childhood pal, Bryce Harper. Anthony Rizzo is hitting in the six spot and Addison Russell is batting at the bottom of the order.
NL #ASG starting lineup: Zobrist 2B, Harper RF, Bryant 3B, Myers DH, Posey C, Rizzo 1B, Ozuna CF, Gonzalez LF, Russell SS
