San Diego's Petco Park Will Host 2016 MLB All-Star Game

PARADISE VALLEY, Ariz. (AP) -- San Diego's Petco Park will host baseball's All-Star game in 2016, making the second straight year the game will be played at a National League site.

This summer's game will be played in Cincinnati on July 14. The same league hasn't hosted the game in consecutive years since 2006 at Pittsburgh's PNC Park and 2007 at San Francisco's AT&T Park.

Bud Selig made the announcement Thursday at the conclusion of his final owners' meeting as baseball commissioner.
