Shohei Ohtani has been selected as a starter for the National League at the 2025 MLB All-Star Game, representing the Los Angeles Dodgers as a designated hitter.

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way star Shohei Ohtani launched his 30th home run of the season on Tuesday night as part of a win against the Chicago White Sox (box score). In the process, Ohtani became the third player to clear the 30-homer mark this season (joining Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh and New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge) and tied a Dodgers franchise record by becoming the second player to tally 30 home runs before the All-Star break.

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman and catcher Will Smith will join the National League's top vote-getter in Shohei Ohtani as All-Star Game starters for the National League on July 15.
