did I hear last night that Ryan Braun was the first Brewers oufielder named to the all star team? I thought Yount made it as an OF also and as a SS?

Apparently not. It looks like Yount made just three all-star teams, none after 1983. How many MVPs weren't all-stars? I want to know this.

He wasn't the MVP either.

Gorman Thomas was an all star in 1981.
Ben Oglivie was an all star in 1980, 1982 and 1983.
Those were the only two I looked up.

Maybe they meant the first Brewer OF to make an NL all star team.
