Top 10 most sold MLB jerseys before 2024 All-Star Break ft. Shohei Ohtani, Bryce Harper and more
The first half of the 2024 MLB season is reaching its end soon, and some players have gained immense popularity through their jerseys. To commemorate this, MLB and MLBA released the list of the players who've sold the most jerseys in the world. This list has been reviewed based on sales from MLBShop.com of Nike jerseys.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Shohei Ohtani is dominating jersey sales in 2024. Last year, he topped the sales list as well, marking the first time a Japanese player led the list of most-sold MLB jerseys since this tradition was started in 2010.
Here's a closer look at the top 10 most-sold jerseys before the 2024 All-Star break.
10 most-selling jerseys in 2024 ahead of 2024 All-Star break
#1. Shohei Ohtani, Los Angeles Dodgers
As of now, Shohei Ohtani has hit 28 home runs in 112 hits and has acquired 66 RBIs. Moreover, he's currently at a career-high batting average of .314.
#2. Bryce Harper, Philadelphia Phillies
Bryce Harper's No. 3 jersey is doing wonders in popularity. Currently, Harper has hit 20 homers, 20 doubles and 58 RBIs in just 80 hits. This has helped him achieve his .298 batting average.
#3. Aaron Judge, New York Yankees
Similar to Ohtani, Aaron Judge has maintained his position in 2024 for the most-sold MLB jerseys, exactly like last year. In 102 hits, Aaron Judge has 32 home runs, 23 doubles, one triple and 83 RBIs. Even though the Yankees are going through a slump, Judge seems to be doing pretty well.
#4. Mookie Betts, Los Angeles Dodgers
Despite currently being on the injured list due to his left-hand fracture, Mookie Betts' popularity has not diminished, and his stats speak for themselves. Before June 16, he hit 10 homers, 16 doubles, three triples and 40 RBIs in just 86 hits.
#5. Ronald Acuña Jr., Atlanta Braves
A month ago, Ronald Acuña Jr. suffered his second season-ending knee injury. Still, his popularity doesn't seem to have gone down, as he still went out with style in terms of jersey sales. He registered 48 hits, which delivered eight doubles, one triple, four homers and 15 RBIs.
#6. Juan Soto, New York Yankees
Ever since his transfer from the San Diego Padres, Juan Soto has shined in a different light. Soto boasts 22 home runs, 14 doubles, three triples and 64 RBIs in just 97 hits. So, despite his team's results, Soto's performance hasn't been a disappointment.
#7. Francisco Lindor, New York Mets
Francisco Lindor is in his fourth consecutive season with the New York Mets, and he's made his name known across the globe. He has been able to produce 93 hits with his bat, hitting 16 home runs, 26 doubles and 48 RBIs so far this season.
#8. Fernando Tatis Jr., San Diego Padres
Fernando Tatis Jr. is one of the youngest players on this list, as it's just his fifth season in the MLB, and he's already making waves among fans. He's been able to hit 14 homers, 24 doubles, one triple and 36 RBIs in 86 hits, giving himself a batting average of .279.
#9. Corey Seager, Texas Rangers
Corey Seager is having a decent season this year, even though his past seasons had better stats than his current one. Seager has been able to hit 17 home runs in 82 hits and has also accumulated 12 doubles and 45 RBIs.
#10. Jose Altuve, Houston Astros
Jose Altuve has been part of the Houston Astros for more than a decade now.

Altuve has been having a stellar season so far, as he's hit 13 homers, 18 doubles and 41 RBIs in 114 hits.
