Now is your chance to step up to the plate and vote for your favorite Royals player to represent Kansas City in the 2016 Esurance MLB All-Star Game.

You can vote up to five times a day on the Royals' website, but no more than 35 times total.  

If you are on the go, you can text VOTE or VOTA to 89269 from your phone to receive the ballot. Voting ends Thursday, June 30 at 10:59 p.m. CST, so fans will need to start voting today in order for all 35 of their votes to count.

 

 

To vote, pick one MLB player from each league and each position.

If you don’t see your favorite player listed, you can also write them in. According to mlb.com, Royals catcher Salvador Perez is in the lead as the top American League vote-getter, racking up 2,744,293 votes.

Eric Hosmer is in the lead as first baseman and Omar Infante is in fourth place for the second base.

You can find the complete ranking at mlb.com. Ned Yost of the Royals and Terry Collins of the Mets will help select the pitchers and reserves for the game, but Player Ballot choices will also play a role.

Rosters will be revealed at 7.p.m. EST on July 5 during the Esurance All-Star Selection Show on ESPN. The all-star players batter up on Tuesday, July 12 at Petco Park in San Diego, California.
