A's 2B Jed Lowrie is no longer an All-Star Game snub

Left off the AL All-Star roster on Sunday, Jed Lowrie was added to the team two days later.

Lowrie will take the place of Yankees rookie second baseman Gleyber Torres, who is on the disabled list due to a hip strain.

The selection is the first of Lowrie's 11-year career.
