href="/wiki/Baseball" title="Baseball">baseball</a> game sanctioned by <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball" title="Major League Baseball">Major League Baseball</a> (MLB) and contested between the <a href="/wiki/All-star" title="All-star">all-stars</a> from the <a href="/wiki/American_League" title="American League">American League</a> (AL) and <a href="/wiki/National_League_(baseball)"

selected by <a href="/wiki/Manager_(baseball)" title="Manager (baseball)">managers</a>, and reserves are selected by players and managers. </p><p>The game is usually played on the second or third Tuesday in July, and is meant to mark the symbolic halfway point of the MLB season (though not the mathematical halfway point, which, for most seasons, falls within the previous calendar week). Both leagues share an <i>All-Star break</i>, with no regular-season games scheduled from the day before through two days<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> after the All-Star Game, with the exception of a single Thursday night game starting in the 2018 season. Some additional events and festivities associated with the game take place each year close to and during this break in the regular season. </p><p>No official MLB All-Star Games were held in 1945 and 2020, and no official selection of players took place, due to <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a> travel restrictions and the <a href="/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic" title="COVID-19 pandemic">COVID-19 pandemic</a>, respectively. Two All-Star Games were held each season from 1959 to 1962. The most recent All-Star Game was held on July 16, 2024, at <a href="/wiki/Globe_Life_Field" title="Globe Life Field">Globe Life Field</a> in <a href="/wiki/Arlington,_Texas" title="Arlington, Texas">Arlington</a>, home of the AL's <a href="/wiki/Texas_Rangers_(baseball)" title="Texas Rangers (baseball)">Texas Rangers</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Baseball teams put on benefit games for the families of players who died unexpectedly.

The criteria for venue selection are subjective; generally, cities with new ballparks and those who have not hosted the Game in many years – or ever – tend to get selected. Over time, this has resulted in certain cities being selected to host more often than others. <a href="/wiki/Cleveland_Stadium" title="Cleveland Stadium">Cleveland Stadium</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Yankee_Stadium_(1923)" title="Yankee Stadium (1923)">original Yankee Stadium</a> have each hosted four All-Star Games, the most of any venue, and <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a> has hosted more Games than any other city, having done so nine times in five different stadiums. At the same time, the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Mets" title="New York Mets">New York Mets</a> did not host for 48 seasons (1965–2012), while the <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Dodgers" title="Los Angeles Dodgers">Los Angeles Dodgers</a> did not host for 42 years, (1980–2022).

The <a href="/wiki/Tampa_Bay_Rays" title="Tampa Bay Rays">Tampa Bay Rays</a> are currently the only club yet to host an All-Star Game, and 3 other teams have never hosted the All-Star Game at their current stadium: The <a href="/wiki/New_York_Yankees" title="New York Yankees">New York Yankees</a> at <a href="/wiki/Yankee_Stadium" title="Yankee Stadium">Yankee Stadium</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia_Phillies" title="Philadelphia Phillies">Philadelphia Phillies</a> at <a href="/wiki/Citizens_Bank_Park" title="Citizens Bank Park">Citizens Bank Park</a> (but scheduled for 2026) and the <a href="/wiki/Atlanta_Braves" title="Atlanta Braves">Atlanta Braves</a> at <a href="/wiki/Truist_Park" title="Truist Park">Truist Park</a> (scheduled in 2021 before the game was moved; now scheduled for 2025).

This tradition has been broken several times; the first time was in 1951, when the AL's <a href="/wiki/Detroit_Tigers" title="Detroit Tigers">Detroit Tigers</a> hosted the game as part of the city's 250th birthday (corrected by the NL hosting the next two seasons). The second was when the two-game format from 1959 to 1962 resulted in the AL being one game ahead in turn. The NL hosted two consecutive games in 2006 and 2007 (Pittsburgh and San Francisco), and in 2021 and 2022 (in Denver and in Los Angeles). The NL also hosted four straight games from 2015 to 2018 (in Cincinnati, San Diego, Miami, and Washington). The AL hosted two consecutive games in 2023 and 2024 (in Seattle and in Arlington, Texas). </p><p>During the first two decades of the Game's history, there were two pairs of teams that shared ballparks. In <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia" title="Philadelphia">Philadelphia</a>, the AL's <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_Philadelphia_Athletics" class="mw-redirect" title="History of the Philadelphia Athletics">Athletics</a> and NL's <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia_Phillies" title="Philadelphia Phillies">Phillies</a> both played at <a href="/wiki/Shibe_Park" title="Shibe Park">Shibe Park</a>, and in <a href="/wiki/St._Louis" title="St. Louis">St. Louis</a>, the AL's <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_St._Louis_Browns" class="mw-redirect" title="History of the St. Louis Browns">Browns</a> and NL's <a href="/wiki/St._Louis_Cardinals" title="St. Louis Cardinals">Cardinals</a> shared <a href="/wiki/Sportsman%27s_Park" title="Sportsman's Park">Sportsman's Park</a>. This led to some shorter-than-usual gaps between All-Star Games played at the same venue; Sportsman's Park hosted the All-Star Game twice in eight years (the Cardinals hosted in 1940 and the Browns in 1948), while Shibe Park was the All-Star venue twice in nine years (the Athletics hosted in 1943 and the Phillies in 1952). </p><p>The "home team" has traditionally been the league in which the host franchise plays its games. The lone exception has been the 2016 Game in which the AL was the "home" team, despite its being played in <a href="/wiki/Petco_Park" title="Petco Park">Petco Park</a>, home of the NL's <a href="/wiki/San_Diego_Padres" title="San Diego Padres">San Diego Padres</a>. This was announced after the 2017 All-Star Game was awarded to Miami, marking a third straight game hosted at an NL venue. This was done because, from 2003 to 2016, the league who won the All-Star Game was given home field advantage in the World Series, and MLB did not want to allow the NL to have the last at-bat in an All-Star Game for three straight years.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> MLB ended this practice in 2017,<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the All-Star Game reverted to having the host team's league serve as the home team. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="All-star_team_rosters">All-star team rosters</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: All-star team rosters"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Selection_of_managers_and_coaches">Selection of managers and coaches</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Selection of managers and coaches"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/List_of_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game_managers" title="List of Major League Baseball All-Star Game managers">List of Major League Baseball All-Star Game managers</a></div> <p>Since 1934, the managers of the game are the managers of the previous year's league pennant winners and World Series clubs.<sup id="cite_ref-sbnation.com_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-sbnation.com-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The coaching staff for each team is selected by its manager. This honor is given to the manager, not the team, so it is possible that the All-Star manager could no longer be with the team with which he won.

Commissioner <a href="/wiki/Ford_Frick" title="Ford Frick">Ford Frick</a> stepped in and removed two Reds from the lineup. As a response to this unfairness, fan voting was discontinued; players, coaches, and managers were given the sole authority to elect starting position players, for the next dozen years. </p><p>Between the lack of fan input and over-exposure due to the double All-Star games in 1959–1962, interest in the game was thought to be waning. As part of the rise of the MLB Promotion Corporation's attempts to modernize marketing of baseball, fan balloting for the starting eight was restored for the 1970 game. </p><p>Sometime in the 1960s, the distinction between left-fielder, center-fielder, and right-fielder was dropped, and it was provided that the top three vote-getters in the outfield category would start regardless of position.

While the Reds were a good offensive team, most baseball observers agreed that they did not deserve seven starters in the All-Star Game. An investigation ordered by Commissioner Ford Frick showed that over half of the ballots cast came from Cincinnati, as the <i><a href="/wiki/Cincinnati_Enquirer" class="mw-redirect" title="Cincinnati Enquirer">Cincinnati Enquirer</a></i> had printed up pre-marked ballots and distributed them with the Sunday newspaper to make it easy for Reds fans to vote often for their favorite stars.

To prevent a repeat of this incident, from 1970 until the start of internet voting, each team has been given the same number of ballots to hand out.

The American League took advantage of the new rule in each of its first seven years: between 2003 and 2009, the American League won four Series and the National League won three.

This has resulted in some fan dissatisfaction and controversy when these players are never actually used in the game, such as <a href="/wiki/Tim_Wakefield" title="Tim Wakefield">Tim Wakefield</a> in the 2009 All-Star Game. Such a move has resulted in calls to allow limited re-entry of players who have been replaced during the game (in addition to catchers, which is already allowed), thereby giving the freedom to use all the players on the roster without leaving teams with the situation where no players are available, as was the case in 2002. Since 2010, each league's manager is allowed to designate one position player who can re-enter the game to replace an injured or ejected player at any position, in addition to the existing rule covering catchers.<sup id="cite_ref-2010_rules_11-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2010_rules-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-33" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-33"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>33<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-34" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-34"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>34<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>A tie game could have also been deemed a "suspended game" in which case it would have ended tied if no make-up date was scheduled, but it would be extremely difficult to find such a make-up date in any event as Major League Baseball would have to postpone one or more days of the regular season and/or schedule the make-up date on a travel day during the postseason, the latter which would be unfair to teams involved in the upcoming series.

The game would go into the record book as a tie, with a notation made as to which league won the swing-off (which would be recorded as such in the head to head record), with no winning nor losing pitcher.
