The 94th Major League Baseball All-Star game will take place tonight at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The pomp and circumstance has be alive and well in Texas since Friday with events like the HBCU Swingman Classic, the Celebrity Softball Game, and of course the Home Run Derby last night. Tonight’s Midsummer Classic features thirty-seven first time All-Stars, including a rookie starting pitcher.

Last Year’s World Series managers will take over the teams again this year, matching Arizona’s Torey Lovullo for the National League against Texas’ skipper Bruce Bochy for the American League.
