Five Senators Named To E.L. All-Star Team
Rosters for the 2013 Eastern League All-Star Game were announced today, and for the third straight year, five Harrisburg Senators made the Western Division squad:
• IF Josh Johnson
• OF Steve Souza Jr.
• RHP Aaron Barrett
• RHP Paul Demny
• RHP Taylor Jordan
This is the first All-Star team selection for Demny and the second All-Star team selection for Johnson (Midwest, 2006), Souza (Sally, 2010), Jordan (Sally, 2011) and Barrett (Sally 2012).
This year’s game will be held in New Britain, Connecticut on July 10th with a HR derby on the 9th. New Britain previously hosted the All-Star game in 2003 and 1987.
UPDATE: The accolades keep coming for Jordan as the 24-year-old was named to the 2013 All-Star Futures Game.
I guess Taylor Jordan has an innings limit but its strange that he hasn’t been kept to a strict pitch count limit … at least until his last 65 pitch start?
Wait. Are you suggesting Matt LeCroy may have been lying?!?!
