Major League Baseball announced several additions to the 2023 All-Star Game on Tuesday, as replacements for injured players.
Among the additions was Tampa Bay shortstop Wander Franco, who was added to the American League All-Star roster in place of injured Yankees slugger Aaron Judge who will miss the July 11 Midsummer Classic in Seattle because of an injured toe.
Franco, who slugged his 10th home run of the season in the Rays’ 3-1 loss to the Phillies on Tuesday, is batting .286 with 43 RBIs and 26 stolen bases.
