The 82nd All-Star Game kicks off tonight at 8 p.m. on FOX. Jered Weaver goes for the AL against Roy Halladay of the NL. The Yankee All-Stars include Robinson Cano, Curtis Granderson, Russell Martin and David Robertson. No Jeter, A-Rod, CC or Mo, of course.
AL - Grandy (CF), A. Cabrera (SS), A. Gonzalez (1B), Bautista (RF), Hamilton (LF), Beltre (3B), Ortiz (DH), Cano (2B), Avila (C)
NL - Weeks (2B), Beltran (DH), Kemp (CF), Fielder (1B), McCann (C), Berkman (RF), Holliday (LF), Tulo (SS), Rolen (3B)
Notes:
- The National League holds a slight edge over the American League in all-time record, 41-38 with two ties.
- Starting in 1997, the American League has absolutely dominated All-Star play, holding a record of 13-1-1. The tie came in 2002 and the National League snapped their losing streak last year out in Anaheim.
- This is the first All-Star Game to be hosted by Arizona.
- Bud Selig announced today that the most likely candidate to host the 2013 All-Star Game is Citi Field. The New York Mets haven't hosted an All-Star Game since Shea Stadium opened back in 1964.
Look for the gamethread at 8 p.m.

Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Had MLB let Citifield host this year...

Should you choose to test my resolve in this matter, you will be facing a finality beyond your comprehension, and you will not be counting days, or months, or years, but milleniums in a place with no doors.
People from Texas generally don't.
It's like being a huge fan of winning, which we do, relentlessly.

yeah but he looks like he's from Boston
and I picture him talking with a boston accent. It helps me hate him more. Though it’s not very hard regardless
Anyone else see the random '1' in the picture.
Just a normal soccer-loving, cricket blog-writing American.
Yahoo has this as their Allstar game pic. WTF is the orange thing circling GA?
Remember when I was Lance Pendleton's biggest fan? Back to reality.
its a hose
and it will get it unless it puts the lotion on its skin

So we are assuming that yahoo is just a second rate reporting company
and were too lazy to get a good picture?
or are hoses and electrical cords common for front page of MLB section

I think

And then on the other hand… it’s asking me for a password. I may have been mistaken.
