2013 All Star rosters announced
Seven Red Sox players on AL squad
Sunday, July 7, 2013

The names of baseball's elite were brought into the public eye today as the rosters for the All Star Game were announced today.
In Boston, there were a number of familiar names as seven Red Sox players were named to the American League's mid-summer classic team.
Starting pitchers Roy Oswalt, Bryan Brake and Johan Santana will be joined by firstbaseman Augusto Martinez, thirdbaseman Miguel Cabrera, shortstop Hanley Ramirez and centerfielder Grady Sizemore.
This is the sixth All Star selection for Oswalt, 35, and his fourth in the last five seasons. He is 12-2 with a 3.79 ERA in 18 starts this season, on pace to go 22-4.
Brake, 23, came into the season with 30 big league appearances in his career and was initially working out of the Boston bullpen. He quickly found himself in the starting rotation and has been impressive enough to earn his first All Star selection. Brake is 9-2 with two saves and a 3.41 ERA in 18 games, 15 of which have been starts.
This is the eighth selection for Santana, 34, but his first since 2010. The lefty is 10-5 with a 3.78 ERA and 112 strikeouts in 18 starts this year.
Sizemore has become a regular at the mid-summer classic as he will appear in his sixth straight All Star Game. He is off to a fantastic start, hitting .329 with 30 doubles, 12 home runs, 67 RBI, 68 runs and 12 stolen bases.
Another All Star Game regular is Cabrera, 30, who has been selected for the ninth time. Cabrera's .342 average, 14 homers, 70 RBI and 65 runs scored have made him an easy choice for the squad.
Ramirez will make his third All Star appearance, having hit .315 with 11 triples, four home runs, 47 RBI, 82 runs and 13 stolen bases in 85 games.
Martinez, 26, has been named to his first All Star team after hitting .349 with 19 homers and 82 RBI in 87 games.
Former Red Sox players Austin Kearns (Oakland Athletics outfielder) and Ryan Howard (Atlanta Braves firstbaseman) will also appear in the All Star Game.
