LaVelle Neal, who covers the Twins for the Minneapolis Star Tribune, comments on Minnesota Twins' outfielder Torii Hunter, pitcher Eddie Guardado, and catcher A-J Pierzynski making the American League roster for 2002 All-Star Game in Milwaukee.
Hunter is the first Twin since Kirby Puckett in 1995 to be voted a starter. The Twins are halfway through their season at 46-36, and are in first place in the American League Central, six games ahead of the Chicago White Sox.
