Cubs designate Richard, call up righty Medina

CINCINNATI -- Kris Bryant loves the daring of manager Joe Maddon, so he felt right at home playing for National League skipper Bruce Bochy in his first All-Star Game presented by T-Mobile on Tuesday night.

Bryant, who has been the Cubs' regular third baseman since late April, was inserted into left field in the sixth inning. It marked only the fourth time he's played left in the Major Leagues, but his college coach, University of San Diego's Rich Hill, feels that is Bryant's best position.
