Bustos will be representing the Rox at the All-Star Game for the third consecutive year.

The North Shore Spirit are sending four players to the game, while the Bangor Lumberjacks are represented by three players, and the Quebec Capitales and New Jersey Jackals are each sending two.

"Everybody on this team is very deserving," Nottle said. "I always look forward to All-Star Games and I'm thrilled to be involved in this one. Any time you have five guys from your squad make the All-Stars, it means you have a pretty special team."

The All-Star game will be played July 20 at LaGrave Field, home of the Central League's Fort Worth Cats. For tickets or information, call (817) 226-2287 or visit www.fwcats.com.
