Here’s a recent AP article on MLB:

NEW YORK (AP) — Shohei Ohtani became the first player elected to start at designated hitter in four consecutive All-Star Games, joining New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge as the only holdovers from last year on rosters announced Wednesday for the July 16 game in Arlington, Texas.

Philadelphia could have three of the National League’s four infielders after fans voted for shortstop Trea Turner and third baseman Alec Bohm to start alongside first baseman Bryce Harper, whose status is uncertain because of a leg injury.

Major League Baseball said it was the first time each league had no more than one player repeat as a starter since fan voting resumed in 1970.

Six teams each have two starters: Yankees outfielder Juan Soto was elected alongside Judge, who earned his spot last week with Harper as the top players in each league who received the most votes in the first round of voting. The second round ran from Sunday to Wednesday.

Baltimore catcher Adley Rutschman and shortstop Gunnar Henderson were elected along with Houston second baseman Jose Altuve and designated hitter Yordan Alvarez; Cleveland third baseman José Ramírez and outfielder Steven Kwan; San Diego outfielders Jurickson Profar and Fernando Tatis Jr.; and Milwaukee catcher William Contreras and outfielder Christian Yelich.

Toronto first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Arizona second baseman Ketel Marte were also elected.

Philadelphia last had three infielders selected in 1982, with Pete Rose, Mike Schmidt and Manny Trillo. Harper was placed on injured reserve on June 28 with a strained left hamstring, but he could return before the All-Star Game.

Tatis hasn’t played since June 21 because of a stress reaction in his right thigh bone and could be sidelined after the All-Star break.

Pitchers and replacements will be announced on Sunday.

Ohtani is an All-Star for the fourth straight season, but for the first time since leaving the Los Angeles Angels for a record-breaking 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers. He was an unprecedented two-way All-Star from 2021-23 but is not pitching this season while recovering from reconstructive elbow surgery.

David Ortiz started as a designated hitter in three consecutive All-Star Games from 2011-13.

Altuve earned his ninth All-Star selection and sixth as a starter, Ramirez his sixth selection and third as a starter and Guerrero his fourth selection overall and third as a starter.

Alvarez, Bohm, Contreras, Henderson, Kwan, Profar, Rutschman and Soto are among the eight new starters. Soto is playing in his fourth All-Star Game, his first for the American League.

“It means a lot. It’s a lot of work,” Soto said at Yankee Stadium. “I’ve been working hard. I finally got my first start, so it’s pretty cool.”

No players were elected to start for the Rangers, who had four starters from last year’s game in Seattle: second baseman Marcus Semien, shortstop Corey Seager, third baseman Josh Jung and catcher Jonah Heim.

Profar became an All-Star for the first time in his 11th major league season. He remained on the free-agent market until a week into spring training before agreeing to a one-year, $1 million contract with the Padres.

In the closest vote in the National League, Tatis (15.36 percent) edged out the Dodgers’ Teoscar Hernández (15.26 percent) and the Phillies’ Brandon Marsh (14.73 percent) for third in the outfield. Turner beat out injured Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts 51-49 percent.

In the American League, Alvarez beat Baltimore’s Ryan O’Hearn 52-48 percent as the designated hitter and Kwan beat the Orioles’ Anthony Santander 28-26 percent for the final outfield spot.

In the first round of voting, from June 5 to June 27, Guerrero was behind Baltimore’s Ryan Mountcastle, Hernandez was ahead of Tatis and Betts was ahead of Turner.
