The top two vote-getters at each position through Phase 1 of voting are finalists and moved on to Phase 2<\/a>, which ends Wednesday at 9 a.m. PDT.

The player at each position to accumulate the most votes in the two-day window will start the July 15 game at Truist Park in Atlanta.<\/p>\n “Very proud. It’s great,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “Obviously we’re playing well.
