Fans of the Texas Rangers are making their voices heard, as four of the club's candidates are leading their respective positions after the first day of the second round of voting for the All-Star Game. 

Second baseman Marcus Semien, shortstop Corey Seager, catcher Jonah Heim and third baseman Josh Jung are each in first place, with outfielder Adolis García currently fifth.

The voting winner at each position will be the starter for the American League in the Midsummer Classic on July 11 in Seattle. García will need to finish among the top three outfielders. Voting ends on Thursday. 

Semien leads the Toronto Blue Jays' Whit Merrifield with 66 percent of the vote. Seager leads Toronto's Bo Bichette with 60 percent. Jung leads Toronto's Matt Chapman with 59 percent. And Heim leads the Baltimore Orioles' Adley Rutschman with 54 percent. 

García has 12 percent of the vote in the outfield. Ahead of him are the Los Angeles Angels' Mike Trout (22%), Tampa Bay's Randy Arozarena (22%), New York Yankees' Aaron Judge (19%) and Houston Astros' Yordan Alvarez (16%). 

Tampa Bay's Yandy Díaz leads voting at first base. Shohei Ohtani of the Angels has already claimed the designated hitter spot after being the AL's leading vote-getter in the first round.
