W-L ERA WHIP K BB
2009 - Tim Lincecum 10-2 2.33 1.05 149 34

Roy Halladay becomes the 2nd Blue Jays pitcher to start an All Star game after Dave Steib did it in back to back years in 1983 and 1984.  Tim Lincecum is the first Giants starting pitcher to get the nod since Jason Schmidt in 2003.  Can anyone name the last Reds starter to start an All Star game?
