Rookie starting pitcher Shane Smith has had a pretty historic debut season with the Chicago White Sox.
After being selected by the White Sox with the first pick in the Rule 5 Draft and earning his way into the starting rotation for Opening Day, Smith has been doing something baseball has never seen before.
He became the first White Sox rookie pitcher in history to be selected for the MLB All-Star Game. He was just the second Rule 5 pick to ever earn an All-Star nod as a rookie, joining Dan Uggla (2006).
