Aaron Judge's prodigious power turned each at-bat into a must-see attraction during the season's first half, and as the rookie slugger prepares to represent the American League in the July 11 All-Star Game presented by Mastercard at Marlins Park in Miami, he will have plenty of company from the Yankees' clubhouse.

The AL's leading vote-getter, Judge appeared on 4,488,702 ballots and is being joined on the roster by at least four of his teammates. Right-hander Dellin Betances, infielder Starlin Castro, catcher Gary Sanchez and right-hander Luis Severino were selected to participate in the Midsummer Classic via the player ballot.

"It's incredible," Judge said. "I get a chance to play in front of the best fans every night at Yankee Stadium. Having their support through these first couple of months has been incredible. They've really motivated our team and they've helped this team a lot. They're always supporting us, so I've got to thank them."
Shortstop Didi Gregorius could also punch a ticket to Miami, having been named as one of the five finalists in the AL's Esurance All-Star Game Final Vote. The Astros, Indians and Nationals also had five All-Stars announced Sunday.

Having slugged a Major League-leading 27 home runs through play on Sunday, the 25-year-old Judge is the youngest player to lead the AL in voting since Ken Griffey Jr. (24) in 1994. He will become the third Yankees rookie to start an All-Star Game, joining Joe DiMaggio (1936) and Hideki Matsui (2003).
"As well as he's played on the field, he's better off the field," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "To me, that's who Aaron Judge is. You watch him, he's a leader. He's the whole package."
Judge and Sanchez have both been invited to participate in the T-Mobile Home Run Derby, and plan to announce their decision at some point this week.
"That'd be cool if me and Gary were both in it, competing against each other," Judge said. "A little healthy competition. We'll decide here in the next couple of days what we're going to do."

Betances joins DiMaggio as the second Yankee to be selected as an All-Star in each of his first four full Major League seasons, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. The right-hander is 3-3 with a 3.12 ERA in 29 appearances, striking out 48 batters in 26 innings, and is looking forward to showing his teammates what the All-Star experience is like.
"I'm very excited, especially with a lot of the young guys going," Betances said. "I feel like I'm the older guy in the group. It's definitely an exciting moment for me and my family."

It is the fourth All-Star selection for Castro, who represented the National League three times (2011-12, '14) as a shortstop. Castro is batting .313/.348/.486 with 12 homers and 45 RBIs this season and, though he is currently on the disabled list with a right hamstring strain, remains hopeful he will be able to play by then.
"I think it's pretty special for me," Castro said. "I feel really good to represent this organization. I think they're going to be happy for me and my family. It's pretty good, the fans keep supporting us."
Sanchez is the first Yankees catcher to make the All-Star team since Russell Martin in 2011, and the third to make one at age 24 or younger, joining Thurman Munson (24 years old in 1971) and Yogi Berra (23-24 years old in 1948-49). Despite missing most of April, Sanchez is batting .289/.378/.526 with 13 homers and 40 RBIs in 53 games.
"It's an honor to have the opportunity to go play there in the All-Star Game in my first full season," Sanchez said through an interpreter. "I'm very excited about that."
At age 23, Severino is the youngest Yankees pitcher to make an All-Star team since Mel Stottlemyre (23) in 1965. He is the first Yankees starting pitcher to be selected to the AL All-Star team since Masahiro Tanaka in 2014, and is 5-4 with a 3.52 ERA in 16 starts, striking out 114 against 25 walks in 99 2/3 innings.
"I feel very happy and proud. I'm proud to be representing the Yankees and the Yankee fans," Severino said. "I worked hard in the offseason. I worked hard to get my spot in the rotation. I'm very happy."
