Get ready to see red during the 2014 NPB All-Star Series later this month, because the Hiroshima Carp's fans might be out in full force.
That's because their team is the most well-represented club on the final All-Star rosters, released Thursday, for the series, which is scheduled to take place July 18 at Seibu Dome and July 19 at Koshien Stadium.
Led by ace pitcher Kenta Maeda, the Carp have an NPB-high eight players on the CL roster. The Fukuoka Softbank Hawks and Orix Buffaloes each have seven to lead the PL squad. The rosters were chosen by fan voting, player voting and filled out by manager selections.
