The American summer is here, with its short nights, long days, hot temperatures. And it's also time for another Major League Baseball Midseason Classic, as the best players in the MLB take on the best in the National League in the 2024 MLB All-Star Game this Tuesday.
Over the years, this game, which despite being an exhibition, MLB has tried to maintain a thread of interest in search of giving fans an attractive and competitive show.
Now, it is the turn of the 94th edition, which will be played at Globe Life Field, home of the Texas Rangers, in Arlington. It will be the first All-Star Game to be played at Globe Life Field, which opened in 2020, and just the second to be held in Arlington.
