Frequently Asked Questions
Does the All-Star Game still determine World Series home-field advantage?
No — MLB eliminated the rule that the All-Star Game determines World Series home-field advantage after the 2016 season. Home-field advantage in the World Series now goes to the team with the better regular-season record.
How are MLB All-Stars selected?
Players are selected through a combination of fan voting (which determines starters), player and manager votes (reserves and pitchers), and a final Player Ballot where fans vote to add the final player from each league.
