What happened: The Philadelphia Phillies are urging supporters to keep casting All-Star ballots, posting a late-night reminder to vote before bed. Phase 1 of the fan vote closes Thursday at noon, with fans able to vote up to five times per day. The club has leaned on its social channels to rally turnout as the window narrows.

Why it matters: Phase 1 results determine which players advance to the finals stage of All-Star balloting, so a strong fan push can be the difference in getting Phillies regulars into the next round. A heavy ballot count also reflects fan engagement at a point when Philadelphia sits in the thick of the season race.

What to watch: Watch the Phase 1 cutoff Thursday at noon to see which Phillies advance to the finals round of fan voting.
