With the unofficial first half of the regular season in the books, Major League Baseball is taking a well-deserved break for the 2019 All-Star Game. This year’s Midsummer Classic is being held Tuesday night at Progressive Field in Cleveland, with FOX providing the coverage at 7:30 PM ET. The American League team is favored slightly at –114, with a total of 8.5 runs on the MLB odds board.

The starters for Tuesday’s All-Star Game have yet to be officially announced at press time, although we know it won’t be Chris Sale for the American League – he wasn’t selected this time around after starting the last three games in a row. Reports at press time have National League manager Dave Roberts going with one of his own starters from the Los Angeles Dodgers, Hyun-Jin Ryu (1.73 ERA). No one pitcher is expected to throw more than two innings in this contest.
The All-Star Game was a reliably low-scoring affair for most of the new millennium – until the recent emphasis on power hitting and changes in the manufacture of the balls themselves. Last year’s game was an 8-6 victory (Over 7) for the AL in 10 innings, their sixth straight win.

One of the most beautiful ballparks in the majors will be featured this Tuesday when Cleveland’s Progressive Field hosts the 2019 MLB All-Star Game. First pitch is at 7:30 PM ET on FOX, with the American League slight –114 favorites at press time.
Hyun-Jin Ryu (1.73 ERA) is expected to take the hill for the National League, while the American League starter has yet to be determined. Chris Sale got the nod in each of the past three years, but was not selected for this year’s game; Mike Minor (2.54 ERA) is believed to be among the top AL candidates.
