Rays third baseman and former Biscuit Evan Longoria will start for the American League in the All-Star Game. Longoria was also an All-Star last year in his rookie season.
Longoria is the first former Biscuit to be named a major-league All-Star starter and will be the first to start from Tampa Bay.
Three other Rays will be reserves: Jason Bartlett, Carl Crawford and Ben Zobrist. Tampa Bay first baseman Carlos Pena is one of four players up for the final AL roster spot, which will be decided by fans' online voting. Longoria was the Final Vote winner last year.
