Brett Favre is stumping for Brian Dozier, so get ready for a Final Vote comeback
Dozier has Brett Favre on his side for Final Vote
Brian Dozier is in the middle of a campaign to be the American League's Final Vote selection to the 2015 MLB All-Star Game presented by T-Mobile. He remains in second place as of Thursday morning, trailing the Royals' Mike Moustakas, but the Twins second baseman collected a gritty four million votes on Wednesday.
Dozier's home run, two RBIs and two stolen bases in the Twins' 5-3 win over the Orioles certainly helped. But if we want to find the real reason for his vote surge, the answer is simple.
BRETT. FAVRE.
Former @Vikings and @USMGoldenEagles alum, @Favre4Official, wants you to #VoteDozier. http://t.co/BK7V6UVALM https://t.co/3Vjc4wuB5r
- #VoteDozier (@Twins) July 8, 2015The former NFL quarterback/gunslinger/iron man/jeans wearer took a break from playing what appears to be backyard badminton to send a clear message to Twins fans: Vote for Brian Dozier, who just so happens to share an alma mater with the Super Bowl champion.
And you know, Favre knows a little something about late-game comebacks.
