MIAMI – Major League Baseball announced today that left-handed pitcher Tanner Scott has been named to the National League All-Star team.

Scott, 29, has gone 6-5 with a 1.42 ERA (6 ER/38.0 IP) in 37 relief appearances with Miami this season, ranking second among National League qualifiers in opponent batting average (.142; 18x127), third in BABIP (.184), and fourth in ERA, while ranking tied for 10th in saves (13). He leads all of Major League Baseball this season with an 83.3 mph opponent average exit velocity (per Baseball Savant), is tied for second in the NL with 23 appearances of zero hits allowed and tied for fourth with 34 appearances of zero earned runs allowed.

Over his last 30 appearances, the southpaw has held opponents to just 14 hits in 100 at-bats, allowing two earned runs in 30.1 innings pitched (0.59 ERA) and striking out at least one batter in 26 of those outings. Scott has struck out the side in two appearances this season, most recently as Thursday, July 4 vs. Boston, tying the third-most occurrences in Marlins history. Only Kyle Barraclough and Mike Dunn have recorded more such appearances (eight).

Scott is the fifth reliever in Marlins history, and first left-hander, to be selected for the Midsummer Classic, joining A.J. Ramos and Fernando Rodney in 2016, Armando Benítez in 2004, and Bryan Harvey in the club’s inaugural season in 1993.

The Warren, Ohio native is in his third season with Miami, posting a 2.82 ERA (56 ER/178.2 IP) with 45 saves, 93 walks, and 236 strikeouts in 178 appearances out of the bullpen. His 19 wins are tied for the second-most by a reliever in club history, trailing only Mike Dunn (26 relief wins), while his 236 strikeouts rank seventh-most all-time. After attending Howard College in Big Spring, Texas and Notre Dame College in South Euclid, Ohio, Scott owns a 28-23 record, 46 saves, and a 3.71 ERA (157 ER/334.2 IP) over eight Major League seasons split between Baltimore (2017-21) and Miami (2022-24).
