PITTSBURGH — Adam Frazier thinks he might be a better baseball player if he could find a way to put his phone down.

Funny, the screen time doesn’t seem to be affecting the Pittsburgh Pirates second baseman too much. He entered play Wednesday ranked in the top 10 in the majors in hits (98), batting average (.326), on-base percentage (.399) while mounting an insurgent All-Star campaign.

Thursday night, Frazier was announced the National League’s starting second baseman for the 2021 All-Star Game. He received 47 percent of the votes in phase two of the fan voting.

Frazier becomes the first Pirate to start by way of fan balloting since Andrew McCutchen in 2014. He is the first Pirate second baseman to start an All-Star Game since Bill Mazeroski in 1967.

Frazier was one of three finalists for the National League’s starting job, impressive considering Frazier plays in a smaller market for a team that’s in the midst of a “from the ground up” rebuild while the other finalists — Atlanta’s Ozzie Albies and Los Angeles’ Gavin Lux — are on teams with a pedigree and star power.
