Jacob Misiorowski, William Contreras To Represent Brewers In All-Star Game

One of the most electric pitchers in MLB and one of the top two-way catchers will represent the Milwaukee Brewers in the All-Star Game.

Right-handed starter Jacob Misiorowski and catcher William Contreras were selected to the All-Star Game, which will be played July 14 at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. It is the second appearance for Misiorowski, who debuted just weeks before the 2025 game, while Contreras is going for the third time and second with the Brewers. He also went in 2024.

Misiorowski is a far cry from a controversial pick this year and has an outside chance to start this year's game, although he is currently scheduled to pitch the Sunday before the All-Star Game. The Miz leads MLB with a 1.47 ERA and 156 strikeouts and has a shutout in his 17 starts and 104 innings. He has a 6.8% walk rate and an amazing 39.3% strikeout rate.

Contreras has a slash line of .293/.358/.416 while playing virtually every day with nine homers and 51 RBIs. His .293 batting average is the highest of his seven-year career. He has made the All-Star Game every other year since becoming an MLB regular in 2022 with Atlanta.

The nine starters for each team were determined by two rounds of fan balloting, with Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani and Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Ernie Clement getting automatically selected to start by virtue of leading the first round in the NL and AL, respectively.

The 23 reserves, which includes 12 pitchers as that position is not up for voting, are selected by player voting and the Commissioner's Office, which ensures that each team has a representative in the game.
