PCL1 Pacific Coast League

Online Voting Underway for 2018 Triple-A All-Star Game

Published on May 25, 2018 under Pacific Coast League (PCL1) News Release


Coming off a record-breaking 2017 voting campaign, Triple-A Baseball® announced today that the 2018 Triple-A All-Star Ballot has officially launched, providing fans across the country the opportunity to send their favorite players to the Triple-A All-Star Game. The online ballot for the 31st annual Triple-A All-Star Game, set to be played in downtown Columbus, Ohio at Huntington Park on Wednesday, July 11, will be available over the next four weeks before fan voting closes on Friday, June 22.

Fan balloting will help determine the starting lineups for both All-Star teams, accounting for one-third of the total vote along with ballots cast by members of the media and each club's field manager, coaches, and general manager. Fans can cast their ballots at the official websites of Minor League Baseball™ (MiLB.com), the International League (ILBaseball.com), the Pacific Coast League (PCLBaseball.com), and the websites of all 30 Triple-A teams. Ballots are also available through the MiLB First Pitch app on Android, iPad®, iPhone® and iPod touch® devices. Once fans have made their selections, they will be able to share links to their ballots through Facebook and Twitter to encourage others to vote.

All fans who participate in the online balloting will be able to vote for players on both the IL and PCL rosters. Fans can select one player for each of the infield positions, plus three outfielders, a designated hitter, catcher, and four pitchers - two starters and two relievers. Write-in votes for players not listed on the ballot will also be accepted. Up-to-date statistics and position-by-position comparisons will be available at the click of a mouse to help fans make their selections.

The Huntington Bank Triple-A All-Star Game presented by Gildan will be broadcast live on MiLB.TV.

All-Star festivities in Columbus begin with the Triple-A All-Star Home Run Derby and Skills Competition on Monday, July 9, part of the 10th season celebration for Huntington Park that will include hosting the 2018 Gildan Triple-A National Championship Game in September.

Fans who are interested in more information on the events, or would like to purchase tickets, are encouraged to visit the official website of the host Columbus Clippers (clippersbaseball.com).
