DETROIT -- Prince Fielder is the only Detroit Tigers player leading the first round of All-Star balloting at his position, according to results released today.

Fielder has 1,027,070 votes as a first baseman, ahead of Mark Teixeria of the New York Yankees with 697,602.

The only other Tigers player in the top five at his position is third baseman Miguel Cabrera, whose 886,365 votes have him trailing Adrian Beltre (1,179,864) of Texas.

Austin Jackson, who has been sidelined with a left abdominal strain since May 17, ranks 11th among outfielders with 389,664 votes.

The All-Star Game will be played July 10 at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City.

Both Fielder and Albert Pujols of the Angels moved to the AL this season via free agency, and the early returns show that the former is the one to beat.

Pujols' awful April not only put him behind the pace to hit his career numbers, but it hurt him at the ballot box as his 478,020 votes are less than half of those of Fielder.

Meanwhile, Joey Votto of the Reds is emphatically answering the question of who takes over for Pujols and Fielder in the National League.

His 1,314,516 votes is more than double the total of his closest challenger Lance Berkman of the Cardinals, who has 634,473 votes as of Tuesday.

The Rangers, as a team, are dominating American League voting.

Texas outfielder Josh Hamilton is leading all players in voting for the All-Star Game. He was one of four Rangers who led their position in voting.

Hamilton had 2,587,991 votes is trying to become the first outfielder since Seattle's Ichiro Suzuki in 2010 to make his fifth fan-elected start in the game.
