Major League Baseball just announced the teams for the Mid-Summer Classic to be played in Cincinnati next week. With a mixture of fan and player votes, some of the games best players will square off to decide home field advantage.
Here’s the list of guys that both leagues are happy they aren’t fighting for anything. Quite frankly, everyone is happy that they are all staying home. The game would probably be a three hit, 17 error, one run tie game that the commissioner would call before the beginning of the fourth inning to avoid losing any more fans.
Without further ado, The Majors Sports Network presents the 2015 MLB Anti-All Stars!
