ATLANTA — As Major League Baseball breaks for Tuesday night’s annual All-Star Game, it’s already been a tumultuous season for a number of teams facing high expectations. One thing that hasn’t changed coming into the break: Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani are still the headliners of the season. While their teams, the New York Yankees …

A trio of former teammates in the Korean league found themselves playing in Major League Baseball (MLB) at the same time during the first half of this season, while submitting a mixed bag of performances during that stretch. San Francisco Giants center fielder Lee Jung-hoo showed the most promise at the start of the season — his second in MLB — after playing only 37 games as a rookie last year due to a shoulder injury. Lee was batting .324/.369/.539 at the end of April with his first career two-homer game thrown in.

The Giants managed to carry over their Spring Training success to the regular season, but what didn’t follow?

For the Giants, contact was king on the first day of the 2025 MLB draft.

Tracking every pick of the 2025 MLB Draft.

For most of the week-long trip to Milwaukee and San Francisco, it looked like the All-Star break couldn't get here soon enough for the Dodgers. Two outs away from reaching the midsummer pause with a two-game winning streak, Tanner Scott gave up a two-run pinch-hit home run to Luis Matos.

The San Francisco Giants found their shortstop of the future on Rocky Top. With the No. 13 overall pick in the 2025 MLB Draft, the Giants selected Tennessee's Gavin Kilen, a poised and polished shortstop who anchored the Vols' infield in his lone season in Knoxville. Kilen is now the second Tennessee player taken in the first round, joining left-handed pitcher Liam Doyle — a testament to the strength of Tony Vitello's program, which has produced multiple first-rounders in three of the last four drafts. Kilen, a native of Milton, Wisconsin, has taken the long, patient route to the pros.

SAN FRANCISCO -- - Freddie Freeman blooped a single into shallow right-center with two outs in the 11th inning to score James Outman for the go-ahead run, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 5-2 on Sunday for a winning series, one day after snapping a season-worst, seven-game losing streak. Spencer Bivens (2-3) intentionally walked Shohei Ohtani to start the 11th and retired Mookie Betts and Will Smith before Freeman delivered with a ball that dropped between three Giants.

The Giants have selected shortstop Gavin Kilen out of Tennessee with the 13th overall pick in the 2025 MLB Draft. Kilen spent the first two years of his collegiate career with Louisville before transferring to Tennessee, where he had a slash line of .357/.441/.671 with 15 homers and 46 RBIs as a junior.

Rafael Devers muscled up and got nothing in the 10th inning. The Los Angeles Dodgers failed to hit the ball hard against Spencer Bivins in the 11th yet broke the game open. The Giants (52-45) will have a six-game deficit when play resumes on July 18 in the National League West.
