Despite a popular "Support the 'Stache" campaign, the mustachioed Giambi finished third in the American League, followed by Orioles second baseman Brian Roberts and Royals outfielder Jose Guillen -- all of whom finished with impressive vote totals. </P><P>

Rays third baseman Evan Longoria and Brewers outfielder Corey Hart won the final roster spots on the AL and National League All-Star rosters, respectively, for the 79th All-Star Game. Longoria won a close race over White Sox outfielder Jermaine Dye, who was bidding to become the third White Sox player in four years to win the Final Vote.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://newyork.yankees.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080710&content_id=3108504&vkey=news_nyy&fext=.jsp&c_id=nyy"><P>
"It would definitely have been an honor," Giambi said. "Either way, I get four days off. I always try to look at the positives of everything. It would have been a lot of fun and I would have been honored to play in it -- the positive side is I get four days off."</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/B8123760-2562-4F7E-B651-236FA538ECC7/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
