2025 MLB All Star Game Betting
The biggest names in the game are out in force for Major League Baseball’s 95th All-Star Game, which takes place on Tuesday, July 15 from the home park of the Atlanta Braves, Truist Field. After having its nine-game winning streak snapped in 2023, the American League returned to its winning ways last year securing a 5-3 win. It was the highest scoring game since an 8-6 AL victory in 2018. A game-deciding two-run home run by Jarren Duran prompted voters to name the Boston outfielder MVP. Over the last nearly three decades the AL has dominated the Midsummer Classic winning 22 of the last 26 All-Star Games, including a 13-game unbeaten streak from 1997 to 2009, helping the junior circuit overcome a 14-game deficit in the overall standings between the Leagues.
The 2025 MLB All-Star Game will be held at Truist Park in Atlanta, Georgia on Tuesday, July 15 at 8 p.m. ET. All the pregame, postgame and in-game action will be broadcast nationally on FOX. A host of betting options will be available at BookMaker.eu.

Each team is made up of 20 position players and 12 pitchers for a total of 32 players. If you did the match you’d notice the NL has 33 players. That’s because Dodgers LHP Clayton Kershaw was a Legend Pick by Commissioner Rob Manfred. The starting lineups were voted on by fans online and the players and managers helped fill out the rest of the team with their choices. Last year’s World Series managers are the managers for the two teams. That means LA’s Dave Roberts will lead the National League team and New York’s Aaron Boone will direct the AL squad.
It’s not an easy game for the managers. Rosters need to be manipulated to get as many if not all players in the game. And you don’t want to over extend players, especially pitchers, and draw the ire of their real teams. Injuries also pop up in the days before the All-Star Game, and a few players will be sidelined from the festivities. That opens the door for others to sneak onto the All-Star game rosters.
MLB rules require that at least one player from each club is selected. However, there is not a requirement for each team to have a player at the game.
MLB All-Star Game Format
The All-Star Game is not a lone event. Instead, it’s joined by the All-Star Futures Game and the Home Run Derby along with numerous other events on the days leading up to the game. The host city becomes a baseball party for several days as the country celebrates its national pastime.
This game is always scheduled for Tuesday night. As for the game itself, it is set up much like a normal game. There are nine innings but no longer are extra innings possible in order to keep arms relatively fresh for the second half of the season.
Beginning in 2022, any game that is tied after nine innings will go into a best-of-five-round home run derby. Five players will be chosen by each manager and each player gets one swing. Whoever hits the most homers in the five rounds will win and be credited in the final tally with one run and one hit each. If the teams remain tied, sudden death rounds will continue.

MLB All-Star Game Notes
In 1996, the National League beat the American League 6-0 to improve to 40-26-1 in the Midsummer Classic. Since that time, however, the AL has owned the National League, winning 10 of the past 11 games and going 28-7-1 since 1988, essentially erasing the 23-2-1 run of the NL through the 60s and 70s. The senior circuit’s dominance is gone as the AL is 48-44-2 in the All-Star Game.
