Alex Rodriguez, Giancarlo Stanton Cut Ribbon At New Miami Baseball Field

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Major League Baseball invaded Miami for the All-Star Game but left an impression on the city with its All Star Legacy project.

At the Boys and Girls Club in Kendall, a newly refurbished field was unveiled by a couple of guys who know something about baseball, including Boys and Girls Club alumnus Alex Rodriguez.

“It was an incredible tool for me,” Rodriguez said. “It kept me away from the streets, it kept me focused. Not only did it give me a safe place to go do homework after school, but it also taught me a high level of competition at a very early age.
