Toronto pitcher is 10-5 this season with 4.44 ERA
Growing up J.A. Happ was an avid collector of baseball cards, but he especially had affinity for those of an all-star variety.
Now the 35-year-old left-hander will have an all-star card of his own as he was named the lone Blue Jays representative for next week’s midsummer classic.
“Really, there’s no other way to describe it than it’s a dream come true,” Happ said following the Blue Jays 2-1, 10-inning loss to the Yankees on Sunday.
