For the second straight year, Yankees slugger Aaron Judge led all players in votes (4,012,983) in Phase 1 of MLB’s fan voting for the All-Star Game starting position players, the league announced Thursday. Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani led National League players in votes. As the leading vote-getters in their league, Judge and Ohtani skip Phase 2 of the voting and receive automatic starting spots in the All-Star Game. Ohtani will be the NL’s DH and Judge will be one of the AL’s three outfielders. 

This is Judge’s seventh All-Star Game selection and his sixth start. He was voted in as a starter in 2023, but was unable to play in the game after suffering a toe injury. Ohtani is heading to his fifth straight All-Star Game and the fifth of his career. He’s been voted in as a starter every time. Ohtani famously started the 2021 All-Star Game as a pitcher and at DH.

As for everyone else, the top two vote-getters at each position (top six outfielders) advance to Phase 2 of the voting. The vote totals reset and the All-Star Game starters will be selected from those finalists. Here are the players who have advanced to Phase 2:

American League

National League

The second phase of voting will begin on June 30 and conclude on July 2. The rest of the All-Star rosters are chosen through a combination of player vote and selection by the commissioner’s office. Full All-Star rosters will be revealed on July 6. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and Yankees manager Aaron Boone are the All-Star managers after meeting in last year’s World Series.

This year’s All-Star Game will be played in suburban Atlanta’s Truist Park on Tuesday, July 16.

Jogador mais velho do Mundial, Fábio é sensação do Fluminense e busca aumentar idolatria tricolor contra Inter de Milão

Desde 2022 no Fluminense, Fábio superou estigmas e conquistou uma idolatria ao seu estilo: (extremamente) trabalhador e líder. Sem muitas chances na seleção brasileira e descartado pelo Cruzeiro, o goleiro de 44 anos virou sinônimo de segurança, principalmente nos momentos mais difíceis do tricolor em campo. Prova viva de que é possível manter o alto nível com a idade avançada, ele fechou novamente o gol no empate em 0 a 0 com o Mamelodi, que colocou o time nas oitavas de final da Copa do Mundo de Clubes. Diante dos sul-africanos, duas das três defesas na partida foram “cara a cara” dentro da área. Os milagres de Fábio embaixo da trave não são novidades para a torcida tricolor, mas, agora, a repercussão ganhou dimensão internacional. Como o jogador mais velho do torneio, ele virou a grande sensação do Fluminense nas […]

Vůbec jsem to od něj nečekal, reaguje šéf Oktagonu na Véghovu zlobu

Végh si v podcastu slovenského rappera Rytmuse stěžoval zejména na výkony bodových sudích, kteří jednomyslně označili za vítěze Terminátora. Uváděl také to, že se v pětikolovém napínavém zápase necítil být ani jednou v ohrožení, ale naopak se sám blížil ve třetím kole k ukončení. Rovněž vyvrátil že by česko-slovenskou MMA rivalitu opanoval lepší bojovník, byť s Vémolou má nadále kamarádský vztah. Několikrát také zmínil, že vítězi stačilo držet otěže souboje u pletiva.„Překvapilo mě to, vůbec jsem to od něj nečekal. Když totiž člověk cítí, že ten zápas byl špatně bodovaný, což bychom měli tak cítit všichni, tak se to řeší hned po zápase. Objeví se nějaké komentáře, že by to mělo být jinak, a i tým kolem zápasníka je nespokojený a nějak to řeší. Teď s tím byli všichni oukej. Attila se krásně v kleci rozloučil. Bylo to hezké sportovní gesto, které se hodí k takové legendě,“ odhaluje Neruda pozápasové chvíle.Foto: […]
