These are the 1948 all-stars as selected by the fans. If your favorite
didn’t make the grade, we’re sorry. But these are the players who
received the highest number of votes. In the case of outfielders and
pitchers the two pitchers receiving the highest number of votes were
named on the first team and the same system was used for outfielders.
The fans named Lee Marett and Doyle Turner for all outfield po
sitions, left, center and right. This made it necessary to group the
votes rather than try to pick players for the individual outfield posts.
