Major League Baseball has officially announced the starters for the 2024 All-Star Game — and just one Dodger is in the National League’s starting lineup.
Shohei Ohtani was named an All-Star starter in his first season with the Dodgers as the designated hitter. However, Mookie Betts and Teoscar Hernández just missed out.
Betts lost to Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner, 51 percent to 49 percent. Hernández lost to Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich and San Diego Padres outfielders Jurickson Profar and Fernando Tatis Jr. Tatis had just 3,000 more votes than Hernández.
Hernández and Betts can still make the All-Star Game as reserves, but only Ohtani will be representing the Dodgers in the starting lineup.
