The 2025 MLB All-Star Game concluded with the National League defeating the American League 7-6. A Home Run Derby-style swing-off was implemented to determine the winner. Key players from the Los Angeles Dodgers included Ohtani, Freeman, Kershaw, Smith, and Yamamoto. Ohtani started as designated hitter, contributing a single, while Freeman and Kershaw also had noteworthy moments. Schwarber, named MVP, hit three home runs during the swing-off, sealing the NL victory. Yamamoto did not participate, having pitched earlier that week.
Ohtani hit leadoff and started at designated hitter for the NL, going 1-for-2 with a single off Tarik Skubal to begin the bottom of the first.
Freeman got the start at first base and grounded out in his only at-bat, receiving a standing ovation from the fans in Atlanta as he left the field.
Kershaw, selected as a "Legend Pick," retired both batters faced and struck out Vladimir Guerrero Jr. looking before exiting to a standing ovation.
Schwarber hit three consecutive home runs to give the NL a decisive 4-3 lead in the swing-off.
