Your 2015 All-Star Game Starting Lineups

I've done this the last two years. It's harmless, it's fun, and I'd like to keep it going. Besides, this is supposed to be a fun event, not as serious as the sportscasters are making it seem. So tonight, I'll stomach Joe Buck, I'll get through all of that crap, but for something fun, something worthwhile.

And now, the starting lineups. First, the AL:

Leading off for the American League, the center fielder, from the Los Angeles Angels....MIKE TROUT!
(Loud Applause)

Batting second, the third baseman, starting his second All Star Game in a row, from the Toronto Blue Jays...JOSH DONALDSON!

Batting third, the first baseman, MAKING HIS TRIUMPHANT RETURN TO THE ALL-STAR GAME...from the Los Angeles Angels...ALBERT PUJOLS!!!

Batting cleanup for the AL, the designated hitter, starting his second All Star Game in a row, from the Seattle Mariners...NELSON CRUZ!

Batting fifth, the right-fielder, from the Kansas City Royals...LORENZO CAIN!

Batting sixth, the left-fielder, starting his THIRD STRAIGHT All-Star Game...from the Baltimore Orioles....ADAM JONES!!!
