As Phase 1 of the All-Star game voting wraps up on Thursday, the competition for spots in Phase 2 is heating up. Fans have until noon ET to cast their votes and influence who will advance in the process.

Pro Tip: …

Don’t forget to vote up to five times per day to support your favourite players!

All-Star Game Voting Format

the All-star Game balloting process consists of two phases. In Phase 1, fans vote for their favorite players, and the top vote-getters at each position (and the top outfielders) advance to Phase 2.In Phase 2, fans vote again to determine the All-Star starters.

The player with the most votes in each league automatically earns a starting spot.For positions other than outfield, the top two vote-getters advance to Phase 2. For outfielders, the top six advance, unless an outfielder is the leading vote-getter in the league, in which case only the next four outfield finalists move on.

Tight Races to Watch

One of the closest races in the American League is between Jackson Holliday of the Orioles and Jose Altuve of the Astros for a spot to advance to Phase 2.The difference between them is just 11,010 votes, making it a battle to watch as the deadline approaches.

The All-Star Game is not just a showcase of talent; it also substantially impacts player contracts and legacies. According to a study by the Society for American Baseball Research, All-Star selections can boost a player’s market value and long-term earnings.
