The Los Angeles Dodgers are merrily sitting 7.5 games up from the San Diego Padres atop the National League West division, but the Friars seem to be annoyed at another area that L.A. is currently leading: All-Star Game voting.
Padres announcer Mark Grant recently came after All-Star Max Muncy while campaigning Friars fans to vote for former Dodgers third baseman Manny Machado for the Midsummer Classic.
“Let’s call it the way it is,” Grant said Sunday. “Manny Machado is a better third baseman than Max Muncy, alright.”
Both of the hot corners are in Phase 2 of All-Star voting.
