MILWAUKEE -- Lorenzo Cain either leads all National League position players or just the NL outfielders, depending on your preferred version of wins above replacement, but he trailed 14 of his peers, including Brewers teammate Christian Yelich, when the first round of NL All-Star Game balloting results were released Monday.
Cain was 15th among NL outfielders with 104,948 votes, while Yelich was 11th with 163,575 votes, after the first 10 days of balloting. The top three outfielders will start the 89th All-Star Game in Washington, D.C.
