Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte will bat third for the National League lineup at the 2025 MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday.
The game will mark the second year in a row Marte will start in MLB’s Midsummer Classic and third time in his career.
The NL starting lineup for the game is the following:
DH Shohei Ohtani (Dodgers)
LF Ronald Acuna Jr. (Braves)
2B Ketel Marte (D-backs)
1B Freddie Freeman (Dodgers)
3B Manny Machado (Padres)
C Will Smith (Dodgers)
RF Kyle Tucker (Cubs)
SS Francisco Lindor (Mets)
CF Pete-Crow Armstrong (Cubs)
Marte previously hit eighth and was the leadoff hitter for the NL in 2019 and 2024, respectively. In five All-Star game at-bats, he is 2-for-5 with a double.
Marte was named a starter after leading all NL players in Phase 2 voting. He put up good numbers in the first half of 2025, slashing .290/.394/.567 with 19 home runs and 40 RBIs despite missing nearly all of April with a hamstring strain.
He is the only starter for the D-backs and is one of three players who will represent the team at the All-Star game, along with third baseman Eugenio Suarez and outfielder Corbin Carroll.
