Mizzou Baseball in the Minors & Majors

Ian Kinsler (03) was once again edged out of the starting 2nd baseman role for the American League team in the MLB All-Star game. For the second straight year, his former Arizona State teammate Dustin Pedroia, now of the of Boston Red Sox, was voted in by the legions of "Red Sox Nation". Kinsler had been leading in the vote as of last Tuesday, but was passsed by Pedroia and edged out by 73,000 votes. Kinsler was not chosen as an AL reserve.
