Jose Ramirez Ties Franchise All-Star Record

Jose Ramirez‘s double off Camilo Doval in the All-Star Game was his fifth career hit in the event, tying Kenny Lofton and Sandy Alomar Jr. for the most in franchise history.

Ramirez went 1-2 in the game, which actually dropped his career ASG batting average to .556, tied for the second highest among players with at least nine at-bats:

  • Richie Ashburn, .600 (6-10)
  • Yadier Molina, .556 (5-9)
  • Ramirez, .556 (5-9)
  • Moises Alou, .500 (5-10)
  • Charlie Gehringer, .500 (10-20)
  • Ted Kluszewski, .500 (7-14)

Former Indians Joe Carter and Leon Wagner (.455 each) are tied for 10th on the list, but neither played in an All-Star Game in a Cleveland uniform.

The next highest to represent Cleveland in the game is Alomar, who checks in at 18th with a .417 average (5-12).
