2. Atlanta Braves 2010 All-Stars: Brian McCann, Martin Prado, Tim Hudson, Omar Infante, Jason Heyward

This is one of two groups to have five players from the Atlanta Braves represent the team in the All-Star game. I ranked this one second because the other one has Chipper Jones, period.

Atlanta Braves 2010 All-Star: Martin Prado

Martin Prado, the consummate professional, was elected as the starting second baseman.  He hit second behind Hanley Ramirez and in front of Albert Pujols. Prado went 0-3 during the game.

All-Star Credentials: .325/.367/.484, 61 R, 25 2B, 2 3B, 10 HR, 39 RBI, 4 SB

All-Star Stat Line: 0-3

Atlanta Braves 2010 All-Star: Brian McCann

This was McCann’s fifth straight All-Star selection. B-Mac took home the All-Star MVP honors with this hit.

All-Star Credentials: .266/.367/.468, 34 R, 13 HR, 32 RBI

All-Star Stat Line: 1-2, 0 R, 1 H, 3 RBI, 0 BB, 0 SO

Atlanta Braves 2010 All-Star: Omar Infante

This was Infante’s lone All-Star appearance in his 15-year MLB career. He finished with a stellar .321 average for the season. The Braves would turn his success into Dan Uggla the following off-season.

All-Star Credentials: .332/.358/.404, 64 H, 8 2B, 2 HR, 24 RBI

All-Star Stat Line: Did Not Play

Atlanta Braves 2010 All-Star: Jason Heyward

2010 was a magical season for Heyward and the Braves. He finished second in Rookie of the Year voting and made his first and (thus far) only All-Star appearance.

After all the hype, who can forget his incredible first at-bat in the majors?

All-Star Credentials: .251/.366/.455, 41 R, 64 H, 13 2B, 3 3B, 11 HR, 45 RBI, 5 SB

All-Star Stat Line: Did Not Play

Atlanta Braves 2010 All-Star: Tim Hudson

Tim Hudson is one of my all-time favorite Atlanta Braves. He was gritty and tough, if he gave up a couple of early runs, you still had confidence that he would find a way to battle deep into a game and give the team a chance to win.

The former 20-game winner would earn his third of four career All-Star appearances and his first selection since the year 2004.

Hudson finished his sixth season in Atlanta with a 17-9 record and a 2.83 ERA.

All-Star Credentials: 9-4 (W-L), 2.30 ERA, 121.1 IP, 1.13 WHIP
