Braun, Fielder Selected for All-Star Team

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Outfielder Ryan Braun and first baseman Prince Fielder are on this year's National League All-Star Team.

It will be the second appearance for both players. Braun went last year and Fielder appeared in 2007.

Braun was named a starter for the All-Star game later this month after getting the most votes among outfielders. He's the only Brewer player since Robin Yount to start in consecutive All-Star games.

Fielder is an All-Star reserve.

This year's game takes place July 14 at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
