LOS ANGELES — Major League Baseball announced the 2026 All-Star Game starters on Saturday afternoon, and the Dodgers once again will be well represented in Philadelphia.
Ahead of Saturday night's matchup against the Padres, MLB revealed that five Dodgers earned National League All-Star honors: Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, Andy Pages and Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
Ohtani (designated hitter), Freeman (first base), Muncy (third base) and Pages (outfield) were all voted in as starters, while Yamamoto earned a pitching selection. It marks the third time in franchise history the Dodgers will have four All-Star starters, tying a club record.
The previous Dodgers teams to accomplish the feat were the 1980 club, with Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Bill Russell and Reggie Smith, and the 1974 team, featuring Ron Cey, Garvey, Andy Messersmith and Jim Wynn.
The biggest story of the group belongs to Andy Pages.
