2011 All Star game update
Voting for the 2011 Major League Baseball All-Star Game ended Thursday at 11:59 p.m. ET. When the polls re-open, it will be to allow fans to choose the final All-Star for the American League and National League teams.
The full rosters, minus the 34th player for each squad, will be announced this Sunday at noon ET on TBS. In addition to the starters, who are voted on by the fans, the pitchers and reserves will be chosen by the players and All-Star managers (Bruce Bochy in the NL and Ron Washington in the AL).

In the NL, the leaders were: Brian McCann at catcher, Albert Pujols at first base, Rickie Weeks at second base, Placido Polanco at third base, Troy Tulowitzki at shortstop and Ryan Braun, Lance Berkman and Matt Holliday in the outfield. Because Pujols is injured, he will miss the game.
The 82nd All-Star Game will be played July 12 at the Arizona Diamondbacks' Chase Field.
