Where to Watch Every 2026 MLB All-Star Today: From the World Baseball Classic to the Midsummer Classic

The 2026 All-Star rosters dropped Saturday night, and if the reveal has you itching to see the game’s stars in person, you’re in luck: nearly every All-Star is in action today on Star-Spangled Sunday, most of it streaming on Peacock. And there’s a bonus layer this year — a huge share of these names were on international rosters just four months ago at the World Baseball Classic, the tournament Venezuela won over Team USA in Miami. Below is your game-by-game viewing guide, with the WBC throughline that ties the whole day together.

From the World Baseball Classic to the Midsummer Classic

March in Miami and Houston was a preview of July in Philadelphia. Team USA’s WBC run alone produced a stack of 2026 All-Stars — and the international rosters sent even more. Before the games start, here’s the throughline.

Bryce Harper and Aaron Judge powered Team USA to the WBC final, and both are 2026 All-Stars — Harper as a Commissioner’s “Legend Pick” with the game in his home ballpark of Philadelphia, Judge as a fan-elected starter. Judge won’t play the Midsummer Classic because of a stress fracture in his right rib, but he’ll be there as an eighth-time selection.

The most fun WBC storyline in the Bronx belongs to Jazz Chisholm Jr., who suited up for Great Britain in March. Bahamian-born and eligible through the Commonwealth, the two-time All-Star captained a Team GB side that punched its ticket to the next Classic. He didn’t make this year’s All-Star team, but he’s very much part of the international thread running through today’s slate — and he’s in the Yankees’ lineup this afternoon.

This is the WBC reunion game. The Yankees run out Jazz Chisholm Jr. (Great Britain) at second, All-Star first baseman Ben Rice, and All-Star outfielder Cody Bellinger — with a chance Bellinger slides into the AL’s starting outfield in Judge’s absence. On the mound for the Twins is All-Star right-hander Joe Ryan, opposing a New York rotation that features rookie sensation and All-Star Cam Schlittler, the AL’s ERA leader.

Minnesota’s Byron Buxton, an All-Star starting outfielder, was part of that same Team USA run — pictured above celebrating a WBC quarterfinal win with Judge. He’s in center for the Twins today.

The holiday-weekend headliner. Braves ace Chris Sale earns his 10th All-Star selection and anchors the Atlanta staff, while Mets slugger Juan Soto — a WBC standout for the Dominican Republic — brings his NL All-Star starting bat to town.

Nationals outfielder James Wood, an All-Star and MLB’s leader in leadoff home runs, is the draw in D.C. On the Pittsburgh side, All-Star ace Paul Skenes — a Team USA WBC arm — isn’t scheduled to pitch, but his star power looms over the series.

Cardinals at Cubs — 2:30 p.m. ET (Peacock)

Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong is the marquee name — an NL All-Star reserve, the reigning NL Player of the Month, and a Team USA WBC alum. St. Louis counters with rookie JJ Wetherholt, who’s been one of the Cardinals’ breakout stories and homered in Saturday’s win at Wrigley.

The late game closes the night with star power. Angels legend Mike Trout — a 12-time All-Star who leads all players in career selections — is voted in as an AL starter and eyeing his first Midsummer Classic since 2019, in a ballpark 40 miles from his New Jersey hometown. Boston counters with record-setting closer Aroldis Chapman, the nine-time All-Star who just became the all-time strikeout king among relievers, and All-Star starter Ranger Suarez, on the mound tonight.

A Pro Tip for the Broadcast

Don’t love your national-TV announcers? The MLB App lets you keep the video stream while syncing your local radio broadcast audio — a trick plenty of Cardinals fans used during the FOX broadcast of Saturday’s Cardinals-Cubs game to hear their own KMOX call instead. When the radio booth is that good, it’s the way to watch.

All times ET and subject to change. All-Star rosters may change due to injury; replacements are announced by MLB. Check local listings for regional coverage.
