Baseball

The first portion of this year's out comes was revealed Thursday, when the leading vote-getter in each league was identified and the finalists for the other starting spots were announced. The Phase 1 winners were no surprise: Shohei Ohtani in the American League (as a DH) and outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. in the National League were selected as automatic starters on July 11 in Seattle.

Now it's time for Phase 2. Beginning today, fans have four days to vote among the finalists at each non-pitching position. Fans can vote once per day, and now that we are on to Phase 2, the Phase 1 vote totals have been reset at zero. The results from Phase 2, which closes Thursday at noon ET, will be revealed that evening on ESPN (7 ET), giving us our 2023 All-Star Game starters.
