The starting lineups for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game at Atlanta's Truist Park were announced Monday.
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is managing the National League squad and going with his guy, National League home run leader Shohei Ohtani, to lead off, followed by hometown favorite Ronald Acuña Jr.
Three of Roberts' Dodgers players were voted into the NL starting lineup, which is as follows:

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone is the skipper for the American League, and he also penciled in a familiar face for his leadoff hitter. Gleyber Torres played seven seasons for Boone in the Bronx before moving to the Detroit Tigers as a free agent last winter.
Boone's current MVP candidate, Aaron Judge, will bat third in the AL lineup in front of MLB home run leader Cal Raleigh of the Seattle Mariners at cleanup.

The Pirates' Paul Skenes (last year's NL Rookie of the Year) and Tigers' Tarik Skubal (the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner) were named the starting pitchers for the game.
Milwaukee Brewers rookie Jacob Misiorowski, a controversial selection to replace Cubs pitcher Matthew Boyd because he has started only five games, will pitch in Tuesday's game, Roberts told reporters.
The remaining AL and NL rosters were announced last Sunday, and replacements for players who opted out or are unable to participate were named on Friday.
