One interesting twist for this year’s contest is that the Designated Hitter will be used in the game, makring the first time a DH will be used in an NL stadium.

All Star Game and AZ’s Immigration law

It looks like MLB will not be listening to the Daily News and other critics who urged MLB to move the game to protest Arizona’s controversial immigration bill SB1070, which was signed into law by Governor Jan Brewer on April 23, 2010. Bud Selig said the game would be played in Arizona, declining to discuss the fact that Ozzie Guillen, MLB’s Players Association and Rep. Jose Serrano, the Democrat from New York who represents the district holding Yankee Stadium have all condemned the law.
