Three! Count 'em! THREE Postseason All-Stars!

Unprecedented.
Three Wisconsin Timber Rattlers have been named to the 2010 Midwest League Postseason All-Star Team. Second baseman Scooter Gennett, outfielder Khris Davis, and closer Jon Pokorny were elected to the team in a vote by the managers of the 16 teams in the Midwest League. These three Rattlers are the first postseason all-stars for the Timber Rattlers since Matt Tuiasosopo was the shortstop on the 2005 team.
Click the link for all of the details. Why unprecedented? Here is why:
The naming of three Timber Rattlers to this season's postseason All-Star team marks the most Wisconsin players on the team in franchise history.  The previous high had been two in four straight seasons form 1998 to 2001.
And here is a list of all Timber Rattlers players to make the Postseason All-Star Team:
