All-Star Game: Goldschmidt batting cleanup for NL
Troy Tulowitzki and Giancarlo Stanton both hit cleanup for their respective teams. But National League All-Star manager Mike Matheny chose to go with Arizona's No. 3 hitter.
Paul Goldschmidt, making his first All-Star start, will hit cleanup for the NL in Tuesday night's All-Star Game in Minnesota. Goldschmidt will be sandwiched by the Rockies' Tulowitzki and the Marlins' Stanton, both of whom are competing in Monday's Home Run Derby.
Here is the rest of the NL lineup, as well as the AL's starting lineup:
