Through the first half of the season, Vogt had a slash line was .277/.320/.442 in 72 games, with seven home runs, and 27 RBIs. Though his offensive numbers were lower than his first-half numbers in the 2015 season, catchers' numbers in general were down across the league, and Vogt's batting average ranked in the top five among catchers. He also led all catchers with 18 doubles. Vogt was selected for the 2016 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, marking his second consecutive appearance. He was Oakland's sole All-Star representative for 2016, and he was the first Athletics non-pitcher named to consecutive All-Star teams since Jason Giambi in 2000 and 2001. Vogt did not get to play in the All-Star game itself, as Salvador Pérez and Matt Wieters were the only American League catchers who played.
