Here is everything you need to know about the 2026 KONAMI eBaseball MLB All-Star Ballot.
How does All-Star voting work during Phase 1?
The first of two All-Star voting phases opened on June 3 at noon ET and will end on Thursday, June 25 at noon ET. During this time, fans around the world can vote for the All-Star starters -- eight position players and one designated hitter -- for each league. You can fill out a 2026 KONAMI eBaseball MLB All-Star Ballot at MLB.com/vote, on all 30 MLB club sites and on the MLB app and MLB Ballpark app.
How often can I vote during Phase 1?
You can cast a 2026 KONAMI eBaseball MLB All-Star Ballot as many as five times per every 24-hour period. Each day, after submitting a fifth vote on the ballot, fans will be given the option to be redirected to the mobile game PRO SPIRIT for an exclusive opportunity to vote for a sixth time. In PRO SPIRIT, fans and gamers can follow the prompts to cast a sixth vote.
During each phase of voting, the 2026 KONAMI eBaseball MLB All-Star Ballot will offer audio CAPTCHA functionality for visually impaired fans. Spanish-language balloting will once again be available to fans via MLB.com/vota, and Japanese-language balloting will be available at MLB.com/ja/vote.
What happens to the top vote-getters from Phase 1?
The top two vote-getters at each position (and the top six outfielders) in each league will be revealed on MLB Network on Thursday, June 25. The overall leading vote-getter in each league will receive an automatic spot in their team’s starting lineup while the other top vote-getters will advance to Phase 2 of voting. If an outfielder is a league’s leading vote-getter, only the next four outfield finalists will move on to Phase 2 to determine who starts at the two remaining spots.
When does Phase 2 of All-Star voting begin?
Phase 2 will begin at noon ET on Monday, June 29, and continue until noon ET on Thursday, July 2. During this three-day window, fans can vote only once per 24-hour period on MLB platforms for the starters they want to see in the Midsummer Classic. Vote totals from Phase 1 don’t carry over.
The winners at each position (including three outfielders in each league) will be revealed on FOX on Saturday, July 4 in addition to the pitchers and reserves.
How are the pitchers and reserve players selected?
The pitchers and reserves for both squads -- totaling 23 players for each side -- will be determined via “Player Ballot” choices and selections made by the Commissioner’s Office.
When is the 2026 MLB All-Star Game?
The 2026 MLB All-Star Game presented by Mastercard will take place at 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday, July 14, at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.
Who are the managers?
Dave Roberts of the defending World Series champion Dodgers and John Schneider of the defending American League champion Blue Jays will serve as the managers.
This will be Roberts' fifth All-Star Game as the manager of the NL team. He was at the helm in 2018, '19, '21 and '25. Schneider will be managing in the Midsummer Classic for the first time.
