The American League starting lineup that Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy will write out for the All-Star Game won’t include any of his own players.

A year after the Rangers had five All-Star starters — four voted in by fans, and another as an injury replacement — the reigning World Series champions didn’t have any players voted in to start the July 16 game that will be played in their home ballpark. Pitchers and reserves will be announced Sunday.

Second baseman Marcus Semien, one of the All-Star starters last year, fell short to Houston’s Jose Altuve in the results revealed Wednesday. Semien was the only Rangers player to make it to the final round of voting for starters.

Semien is hitting .231 with 11 home runs and 45 RBIs, but has hit .088 (6 for 68) the past 16 games to drop his overall average by 34 points. He had two hits in 36 at-bats the past eight games, and wasn’t in the Rangers starting lineup Thursday for only the second time this season.

Third baseman Josh Jung, voted in as an All-Star starter as a rookie last season, hasn’t played for Texas since April 1, when his right wrist was broken after getting hit by a pitch. Shortstop Corey Seager is hitting .260 with 15 homers and 38 RBIs after the World Series MVP missed most of spring training following a sports hernia repair.

Switch-hitter Jonah Heim, the AL’s starting catcher last year, has hit .175 over his past 30 games. Right fielder Adolis García, who started after Aaron Judge and Mike Trout were both unable to play, has 16 homers and 44 RBIs but struggled through May and much of June.

Those Rangers aren’t the only players not repeating as All-Star starters from last year. Major League Baseball said this is the first time each league has had no more than one player repeat as an elected starter since fan balloting resumed in 1970.

Bochy said he has not yet considered what his AL lineup might look like after the announcement of the starters: Baltimore catcher Adley Rutschman, Toronto first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Altuve, Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson, Cleveland third baseman José Ramirez, Indians outfielder Steven Kwan and New York Yankees sluggers Aaron Judge and Juan Soto.

Briefly

Pirates >> Pittsburgh placed rookie pitcher Jared Jones on the 15-day injured list on Thursday with a right lat strain. The Pirates made the move less than 24 hours after Jones left a start following five innings and 78 pitches. The 22-year-old Jones is 5-6 with a 3.56 ERA and 98 strikeouts in 91 innings.

Blue Jays >> Toronto shortstop Bo Bichette was scratched from the lineup for Thursday afternoon’s game because of a right forearm contusion. The two-time All-Star and two-time AL hit leader struck out on a pitch that hit him in the ninth inning of Wednesday’s 9-2 loss.

Yankees >> Ben Rice was moved into the New York leadoff spot 15 games into his big league career for Thursday’s game and Anthony Volpe was dropped to sixth in the batting order.
