Judge ‘Home Run King + MVP Chosen’ has 3.42 million votes! All Stars go straight…”2.77 million votes.” Ohtani Zechin Harper, but his physical condition is unusual

Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees, who is running fast to select the MVP as well as the home run king of the American League this year, garnered the most votes in all-star rankings. Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers, on the other hand, will go through the second round of voting.

“MLBcom” announced the results of the first All-Star voting between the American League and the National League on the 28th (Korea time). In the American League, New York Yankees Aaron Judge and Philadelphia Phillies Bryce Harper were ranked first in the National League.

At the end of the game on Friday, Judge displayed impressive performance in 81 games with 88 hits, 30 homers, 77 RBIs, 61 runs, and a batting average of 0.304 OPS. Judge became the first player in the Major League to hit 30 homers this year. He is speeding at the same pace as when he hit 62 homers in the 2022 season, when he became the home run king and MVP. Notably, Judge is showing 150 RBIs and a pace in the American League for the second time since Alex Rodriguez, the legendary player.

According to “MLBcom,” Judge won the American League’s “most votes” with 3,425,309 votes. In Major League Baseball, players with the most votes in each league can get their hands on a direct ticket to the All-Star game without a second round of voting, and Judge won this honor. It is the second time since 2022 that Judge has tasted the joy of the most votes in the American League, and he has been selected as the sixth All-Star in his career since 2017. In particular, the joy doubled in that all six All-Star appearances were made through fan voting, not “recommended” players.

While Judge was chosen in the American League, Bryce Harper eclipsed Ohtani and garnered 3,277,920 votes in the National League. Harper has 87 hits, 20 homers, 58 RBIs, 52 runs batted in, and 0.303 OPS of 0.981 in 76 games this season. Although Harper is not leading in the batting index at all, he has confirmed that he will play as an All-Star for the eighth time in his career based on his strong fan base. However, it is unclear whether Harper will play as an All-Star.

In a showdown with the Miami Marlins on the day, Harper appeared to have suffered a hamstring injury while running toward the first base after hitting the second base with two outs in the ninth inning. When asked about his physical condition after the game, Harper said, “I don’t know. It hurts that I’ve never experienced. It hurts,” adding, “I’ll have to see how he is tomorrow.” 파워볼사이트

Currently, Ohtani, who has recorded 100 hits, 25 homers, 61 RBIs, 65 runs and 16 steals in 79 games, has a batting average of 0.322 OPS 1.045, sweeping various batting indicators such as National League home runs (25 homers), runs (65 runs), batting average (0.322), slugging percentage (0.643), OPS (1.045), OPS+ (194), and Ruta (200-base hit) as well as setting a new LA Dodgers record with 10 consecutive RBIs in the game on the 27th, fell behind Harper in “firepower.” Ohtani ranked first in the designated hitter category with 2,777,173 votes, but failed to surpass Harper. Therefore, Ohtani is expected to play in the All-Star game through the second round of voting.

MLBcom said the players who surpassed 2.5 million votes in the first round were Philadelphia third baseman Alec Bohm (3.175,134); Yankees outfielder Juan Soto (3 million,121); Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutchman (2.79 million,525 votes); Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (2.777,173); Baltimore shortstop Gunner Henderson (2.664,120 votes); and San Diego Padres outfielder Jurickson Profar (2,559,897 votes). The second round of voting for Major League All-Star will begin on January 1. The second round of voting will take place with one outfielder in the American League and the first baseman in the National League.
