MLB All-Stars captivated fans of all ages and backgrounds this past July at Dodger Stadium.
The American League extended its hot streak of dominance and took the win this year.
It was a great weekend, filled with cool moments and the best players in the world.
After the game, the focus shifted on the remainder of the 2022 MLB season, but it’s now time to think ahead and start picturing the 2023 All-Star Game.
It will be played in the home of the Seattle Mariners: we already got to know the logo of the 2023 All-Star weekend; and now we know the date.
“The date is set: Baseball’s biggest stars will descend on Seattle for the 2023 All-Star Game on July 11,” the Mariners’ Twitter account wrote on Tuesday afternoon.
The date is set 📆

It will be the first time since 2001 that the Midsummer Classic will be played in Seattle.
They did it at Safeco Field back then, but this time, the name of the venue is T-Mobile Park.
Fans Will Be Excited To Have The All-Star Game In Seattle
It will likely be packed with a raucous crowd, cheering for their favorite players.
Seattle has some of the most loyal fans in MLB: people love baseball there.
They are prepared to see the league’s elite showing the talent that made them true stars.
Of course, they will hope to see some local stars, too: Julio Rodriguez, Luis Castillo, Robbie Ray, and why not, a surprise or two.
The Mariners are looking like a postseason team in 2022, and will likely compete again next year.
Interest in baseball around the city is very high at the moment, and that will likely be the case next year, too.
Can you imagine J-Rod’s power performance in the Home Run Derby at home next year?
That competition would be really, really fun there.
Everything is set now: the location, the logo, and the date.
