Both MLB Network and ESPN will televise the first two rounds of the draft starting at 7:00 p.

m. ET July 9. Ticket prices for the 2023 MLB All-Star Game are at a record high and have ranged from near $400 for standing room only to some $5,000 for field level seats on the secondary market.

But with the absence of superstars Aaron Judge and Mike Trout, who are on the disabled list, and with Shohei Ohtani expected to be limited to designated hitter, those prices have dropped. Changing the Fabric of MLB Enjoy the All-Star Game as Major League Baseball has a long-term plan to change the basics of the American League vs. National League setup that has been the lifeblood of the sport since the first World Series in 1903.

But for the next few days, all eyes of the baseball world will be on Seattle and Tuesday’s 93rd MLB All-Star Game. T-Mobile Park is no longer the extreme pitchers’ park it was years back, and it logged the 2nd highest homer park factor in the game last season. Five of the last six Mariners home games since the end of June saw at least 11 runs scored.

Now baseball’s biggest stars will be shining in Seattle, and I’m willing to bet there will be more scoring than expected for Tuesday’s MLB All-Star Game. You can bet on it. Follow me on Twitter .
