Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge and Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper were the top vote-getters through phase 1 of MLB All-Star Game voting.
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge and Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper were elected Thursday to start in the July 16 All-Star Game at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. Judge led the major leagues with 3,425,309 votes in the first round of fan balloting and was picked for his sixth American League start in seven All-Star games, though he missed last year because of a sprained right big toe. He also was the leading vote-getter during the first phase in 2022.
An individual can vote once per 24-hour period. Remaining starters will be announced on June 30. Pitchers and reserves will be revealed on July 7. Six players each from the Baltimore Orioles and Philadelphia Phillies advanced to the second phase. In the final days of the initial voting, Philadelphia's Kyle Schwarber overtook Atlanta's Marcell Ozuna for the second spot among NL designated hitters behind Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani.
