Check out the players that started for the NL in the outfield and the 3 reserve outfielders. Infield isn't to bad either.

Also the list of NL league pitchers is amazing.

I wonder if video of that game exists anyplace.

It's notable that they were voted on the team by their peers.

Good for Ben Sheets !! Outstanding stuff , grinding it out year after year on a sub-par team . He deserves to start , hope he does well !!

Outstanding group , perhaps the best ever . Sorry I dipped off the the thread with the Ben Sheets post . This year certainly doesn't compare to the '65 lineup.

Notable this year that those peers voted in Jason Varitek and left off the guy leading the majors in homers as well. :bang:

Varitek is not a starter.

The fans voted the starters in, they did a much better job than the players voting the reserves.
