MLB All-Star Starters 2026: Trout Returns

Mike Trout, the 12-time All-Star selection, will make his first Midsummer Classic start since 2019, breaking a stretch of injury-shortened seasons. The 34-year-old outfielder hopes to play in front of his hometown crowd in Philadelphia, which is just 40 miles from his Millville, New Jersey home.

The Dodgers dominate with four starters: Shohei Ohtani (extending his record sixth consecutive fan election at DH), Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, and Andy Pages. The American League and National League each feature stacked lineups with numerous stars heading to the July 14 game at Citizens Bank Park. beltedkingfisher.blog
