All Star Game at Wrigley, 2027 - Confirmed by Bruce Levine

[Irrelevant Dude]

Laurence Holmes just made a comment on The Score which leads me to believe that an All Star Game announcement may be imminent.

He said there is some "interesting and exciting" Cubs news, and mentioned it being related to some ongoing security changes around the ballpark.

This could be something else, but my guess is we will soon be hearing about the long-awaited Wrigley Field All Star Game.

2027 here we come.  According to Bruce Levine.

It will be announced officially by MLB sometime this summer.

One thing is for certain: the HRD literally cannot be worse than it was in 1990. Five total homeruns were hit that day LOL

Finally...have only been trying for more than a decade. 

Let's see if we even have a 2027 All-Star game after the impending lockout

They also discussed the possibility that there may not be an All-Star game in 2027 due to the labor situation.  Obviously there are no answers yet on that front.  The game could get bumped to 2028, or if another city has already been pegged for 2028, then it would likely be 2029 or later.

I went to the 1990 ASG. SRO, 2-0 final. I don't think we stayed to the end. Glad it's coming back though

Cool, long overdue to having another one here

I hope Kyle Tucker is one of many representing the Cubs at that game.

That would be the Cubs luck and mine.

I was out of town for the 1990 one, I definitely want to go to this one
