What Makes an All-Star?
As a lifelong baseball fan, one of the best parts of summer is immersing myself in baseball.
This year things are particularly good, since my San Francisco Giants won the World Series in November and, in spite of a slew of injuries, are leading their division at the All-Star Break–with five Giants and manager Bruce Bochy as key parts of the National League All-Star team.
Which begs the question: What is it that *really* makes someone an All-Star?
