Bryce Harper was voted into the starting outfield for the National League by 2,865,095 fans, garnering the most votes of any NL outfielder.
In earning his fourth All-Star nod, his third as a starter, Harper, 23, joins Hall of Famer Gary Carter and Andre Dawson as the only players in franchise (including the Montreal Expos) history to earn at least three fan elections to the Midsummer Classic.
After struggling in May, Harper's on a bit of a run lately too, having reached base safely in 29 of his last 31 games.

FOXSports.com's Jon Morosi noted just how unique it was for Harper to be appearing in his fourth All-Star Game before his 24th birthday:
Incredible: @Bharper3407 is making his 4th All-Star appearance, and he is *younger* than 10 players in the Futures Game. @MLBNetwork @MLB
