At FanFest, nothing but home runs

In life, there are some questions that require fancy answers. “Why did you come to FanFest?” is not one of them.

“We came because we really, really like baseball,” said 9-year-old Callan Lutz of Chula Vista, as he and his mom, Angie, waited in line at the San Diego Convention Center Friday morning for the opening day of MLB All-Star FanFest. “I just love how the sport is played. I love how they play the game.”

Now in its 25th year, FanFest is a five-day celebration of the game, the people who play it and the people who love it.
