NEW YORK, NY — Major League Baseball launched the 2026 KONAMI eBaseball^TM MLB All-Star Ballot at 12:00 p.m. (ET) today for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game presented by Mastercard, which will be held on Tuesday, July 14^th at Citizens Bank Park, the home of the Philadelphia Phillies.

The 2026 MLB All-Star Ballot once again features two phases of fan voting to determine the All-Star starters. Beginning today, fans around the world can cast their votes exclusively online and via mobile devices at MLB.com/vote, all 30 Club web sites, the MLB App and the MLB Ballpark App until the voting period for Phase 1 concludes at 12:00 p.m. ET on Thursday, June 25^th. During the initial voting period from June 3^rd-25^th, fans can submit up to five ballots each day on MLB platforms. Each day, after submitting a fifth vote on the ballot, fans will be given the option to be redirected to KONAMI’s mobile game eBaseball^TM: MLB PRO SPIRIT for an exclusive opportunity to vote for a sixth time.

On Thursday, June 25^th, the top two vote-getters at each position (and the top six outfielders) in each league will be revealed on MLB Network at 6:00 p.m. (ET), and they will advance to the second phase of voting to determine who makes the All-Star teams and starts for each league. Once again, the leading vote-getter in each league during the first phase of voting will receive an automatic starting assignment at the All-Star Game and bypass the second phase of voting. If an outfielder is a league’s leading vote-getter, Phase 2 voting at the position will still take place to determine the remaining two starters among the next four outfield finalists.

Phase 2 will begin at 12:00 p.m. (ET) on Monday, June 29^th, with fans voting among the finalists at each position during a four-day window that concludes at 12:00 p.m. (ET) on Thursday, July 2^nd. During this second phase of voting, in which fans can vote once per day on MLB platforms, vote totals will reset (i.e., vote totals from Phase 1 do not carry over) and the winner at each position (including three outfielders per league) will be named a starting position player for the 2026 Midsummer Classic.

The NL All-Star Team, which will be managed by Dave Roberts of the defending World Series Champion Los Angeles Dodgers, and the AL All-Star Team, led by John Schneider of the defending AL Champion Toronto Blue Jays, will each have nine elected starters via the fan balloting program. The pitchers and reserves for both squads – totaling 23 for each side – will be determined through a combination of “Player Ballot” choices and selections made by the Commissioner’s Office. The full 2026 All-Star rosters, including the announcement of starters and reserves, will be revealed on the “MLB All-Star Game Selection Show presented by KONAMI” on Saturday, July 4^th at 7:30 p.m. (ET) on FOX ahead of FOX’s Baseball Night in America coverage of the St. Louis Cardinals visiting the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field and the New York Mets visiting the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park.

During each phase of voting, the 2026 MLB All-Star Ballot will offer audio CAPTCHA functionality for visually impaired fans. Spanish-language ballots will be available to fans via MLB.com/vota and Japanese-language ballots will be available at MLB.com/ja/vote.

Fans will once again have the opportunity to participate in the official voting for the Ted Williams All-Star Game Most Valuable Player Award. During the Midsummer Classic, fans can vote exclusively at MLB.com and the 30 Club sites – online or via their mobile devices – with the 2026 All-Star Game MLB.com MVP Vote, and their collective voice will represent 20 percent of the official vote determining this year’s recipient of the Arch Ward Trophy.

The 96^th Midsummer Classic will mark the celebration of the Semiquincentennial of American independence and follows suit from 1976, when Veterans Stadium hosted the All-Star Game in the year of the nation’s Bicentennial. This year marks the fifth time that the City of Philadelphia will host the event, including the first time at their current ballpark. Previous Philadelphia sites to host the All-Star Game include Shibe Park, which staged the Midsummer Classic in 1943 (hosted by the Philadelphia A’s) and 1952, and the aforementioned Veterans Stadium, which also hosted the 1996 All-Star Game.

MLB All-Star Week includes the MLB All-Star Game presented by Mastercard (July 14^th); Gatorade All-Star Workout Day featuring the T-Mobile Home Run Derby (July 13^th); All-Star Sunday featuring the All-Star Futures Game and MLBx: All-Star 3-on-3 (July 12^th); the MLB Draft presented by Nippon Express (July 11^th-12^th); the HBCU Swingman Classic (July 10^th); and Capital One All-Star Village (July 11^th-14^th).
