Former Razorbacks Andrew Benintendi and Ryne Stanek were named to the U.S. roster for the July 10 Sirius XM All-Star Futures Game on Tuesday afternoon.
Benintendi is hitting .264 with three home runs and 22 RBIs while playing center field in 36 games for the Portland Sea Dogs, the Double-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox. The 2015 first-round pick was promoted to Portland after playing his first 34 games this year in Single-A Salem, where he hit .341 with 32 RBIs.
Stanek, Tampa Bay’s first-round pick in 2013, is 1-6 with a 3.91 ERA in 17 appearances, 11 starts, for the Montgomery Biscuits, the Devil Rays’ Double-A affiliate.
The Futures Game is part of a Sunday doubleheader, along with a celebrity all-star game, at San Diego’s Petco Park during all-star weekend.
