Default Oddest All-Star Pairings
By that I mean post the two guys you find it hardest to believe have the same number of All-Star Appearances.

I'll start:

Steve Sax and Frank Thomas have the same number of All-star appearances with 5 each.

Robin Yount and Andy Pettitte were both 3 time all stars

Hard to believe Yount, a two-time MVP. 3,000 hit club member, and HOFer, was only on the team 3 times.

I agree on Yount, but there's gotta be a guy worse than Pettite who's made 3. I was torn between Steve Sax and Buddy Rosar at 5 games and I'd take Pettite over either one of them!

I have a good one but I guess it comes with an asterisk:

Babe Ruth and Cristian Guzman were both 2 time all stars.

LOL yeah I thought about going that route but it seemed like cheating. Let's keep it to guys whose careers started after 1933.

Johnny Edwards, Jim Wilson and Jack Kramer at 3 along with HOFers Fergie Jenkins, Robin Yount and likely HOFer Omar Vizquel.

How many of these came after they started the rule that every team had to have someone on the ASG roster?

Yes, the rule that gave us such gems as “two time all-star Scott Cooper”’.

Well considering the rule is from 1935, pretty much all of them.
