Crow-Armstrong, Tucker Named All-Star Starters for National League
- MLB announced on Wednesday that Pete Crow-Armstrong and Kyle Tucker, both Chicago Cubs outfielders, will start for the National League in the All-Star Game on July 15 at Atlanta's Truist Park.
- Fan voting occurred in two phases, including a 48-hour vote-off among top finalists at each position, leading to selections like Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani topping Phase 1 voting in their leagues.
- The starting lineups include three Los Angeles Dodgers players—Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, and Shohei Ohtani—plus NL starters Ketel Marte, Francisco Lindor, Manny Machado, and outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr., who led Phase 2 outfield voting despite missing early season games.
- Freeman earned his ninth All-Star berth and fifth as a starter while Jacob Wilson, a 23-year-old Athletics rookie shortstop, became the second rookie in history to start at that position by edging Bobby Witt Jr. 52% to 48%.
- The full All-Star roster, including 23 pitchers and reserves for each league, will be announced on Sunday, July 7, ahead of the July 15 game which will feature representation from all 30 MLB teams.
