ALL-STARS: The A’s had two players named to the American League All-Star team, both as a result of player balloting…Stephen Vogt received the most player votes among catchers and Sonny Gray placed third among starting pitchers…it was the first All-Star Game for both players…Gray was not active as he started the Sunday before the game and Vogt struck out in his only at bat while catching three innings.

TODAY’S TIDBITSBilly Burns leads ML rookies in hits (83) and stolen bases (18) and is tied for the lead in multiple hit games (25)…Tyler Clippard has not al-lowed a run in 10 of his past 11 games (1 er in 12.2 ip, 0.71 ERA) and is a perfect 8-for-8 in save opportunities over that span…Brett Lawrie has a nine-game hitting streak against Minnesota (13-for-36, .361) and is a .333 (27-for-81) career hitter against the Twins, which is his best mark against any AL team…is batting .575 (23-for-40) when putting the first pitch in play…Josh Reddick leads the majors in two-out RBI (33)…Eric Sogard has a 42-game errorless streak as a second baseman and leads AL second baseman with a .994 fielding percentage…Ben Zobrist has not committed an error in 26 games at second base and has a 55-game errorless streak as a second baseman dating back to June 19, 2014.

THIS DATE IN A’S HISTORYIn 1927 Ty Cobb, who spent most of his career with Detroit, collects his 4000th career hit in an A’s uniform against the Tigers…he doubles off Sam Gibson in the A’s 5-3 loss…in 1983 the A’s turn the fifth triple play in Oakland history vs. Detroit when John Wockenfuss hits into a Ricky Peters to Tony Phillps to Bill Almon to Wayne Gross triple play…in 1988 Stan Javier collects five hits in five at bats in the A’s 7-2 victory over Cleveland…in 2004 Mark Mulder extends his winning streak to 11 games in the A’s 5-3 win over Chicago…the streak, which would end in his next start, is the second longest in Oakland history.
