Diaz had a Box-Toppers game score of +2.0, same as one other NL teammate, Nationals pitcher Josiah Gray (1IP 0H 0R 0BB K ND). But in cases of game score ties, batters rank ahead of pitchers.
Diaz has earned 3.5 Box-Toppers points in 2023, 149th among all players, 27th among NL batters and third among NL catchers. He was selected as a reserve player on the NL team, behind elected NL catcher Sean Murphy of the Braves (4.0 Box-Toppers points, first among NL catchers).
Starting pitcher for the National League, Zac Gallen of the Diamondbacks, had a +1.0 Box-Toppers game score (1IP H 0R 0BB K ND).
As it was a low-scoring game and because pitchers appeared for no more than one inning, Box-Toppers game scores were low. Only three NL batters had positive game scores:
Diaz, +2.0.
Luis Arraez of the Marlins, +1.0 (2-2 R 0BI).
J.D. Martinez of the Dodgers, +1.0 (2B 2-2 R 0BI).
American League starting pitcher Gerrit Cole had a +1.0 Box-Toppers game score (1IP 0H 0R 0BB 0K ND).
Shohei Ohtani of the Angels, who leads all players, all AL pitchers and all AL batters in Box-Toppers points (13.9) batted in the game, but did not pitch. He had a -1.0 Box-Toppers game score (0-1 0R 0BI).
Spencer Strider of the Braves leads NL players with 11.7 Box-Toppers points, but did not pitch Tuesday, though he was selected to the team.
Ronald Acuna Jr. of the Braves, who leads NL batters in 2023 Box-Toppers points (6.0), had a -2.0 Box-Toppers game score (0-2 0R 0BI).
