On Sunday evening, Major League Baseball announced the complete rosters for the 2024 All-Star Game. The National League’s roster features some familiar names and superstars, but it’s also loaded with players making their first trip to the Mid-Summer Classic. The roster for the Senior Circuit includes 17 first-time all-stars.

In total, 10 pitchers on the National League staff are making their All-Star Game debut. That’s a remarkable number. The Philadelphia Phillies are the first team since the 2016 Cubs to have three infielders voted as starters in the All-Star Game.
