Two players from the Gwinnett Braves have been named to play in the 2013 Class AAA All-Star Game later in July, according to a G-Braves news release.
Outfielder Joey Terdoslavich was selected to the International League squad by voting from fans, managers, general managers and media, and so will start. First baseman Ernesto Mejia was selected by the league office.
Terdoslavich is fifth in the league in hitting with a .322 batting average (as of July 3). Also, he ranks among IL leaders in hits (1st, 102), RBI (4th, 58), and home runs (tied-4th, 18).
Mejia is batting .249 with a team-leading 21 home runs and 62 RBI. He played in the All-Star game last season.
This year's All-Star Game will be July 17 in Reno, Nev. The IL Stars will take on the Pacific Coast League All-Stars.
