Pujols leads Majors in All-Star votes

Quote:
Baseball fans, let there be no doubt. This season and this All-Star Game belong to Albert Pujols.

The Cardinals slugger was the top online vote-getter and top overall vote-getter in balloting for the 2009 All-Star Game, the second time in his career that he has received each of those designations. He was similarly recognized in 2006. The game is set for July 14 at Busch Stadium.
