Second baseman Ian Kinsler is one of five candidates that have the chance to make the American League All-Star team by way of the Sprint Final Vote competition, which fans can vote for either online or on their cellphone.
Kinsler will be competing with Chone Figgins of the Angels, Adam Lind of the Blue Jays, Brandon Inge of the Tigers and Carlos Pena of the Rays for the final spot on the AL team.
Kinsler finished second to the Red Sox's Dustin Pedroia in fan voting at second base, and second to Toronto's Aaron Hill in player voting at the position.
Kinsler led fan voting up until the final count, when Pedroia blew by him to earn the starting nod for the second straight year.
