The Major League Baseball All-Star Game, also known as the "Midsummer Classic", is an annual contest between players from the National League and the American League. Position players are selected by fan vote and managers select the pitchers. The All-Star Game usually occurs in early to mid-July (this year July 11) and marks the symbolic halfway point in the Major League Baseball (MLB). It is used to determine home field advantage for the upcoming World Series. Intended as a one-time event, the first All-Star Game was held as part of the 1933 World's Fair in Chicago and was the brainchild of Arch Ward, then sports editor for The Chicago Tribune.
