CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds started a countdown to a 2015 All-Star game on Wednesday by breaking out the bunting and bursting into a standing ovation.
A few of them also started to dream about playing in it.
Commissioner Bud Selig awarded the midsummer game to Cincinnati on Wednesday, rewarding years of persistence by Reds owner Bob Castellini. The city hasn’t hosted an All-Star game since 1988, when the Reds played at Riverfront Stadium.
“I can’t imagine what’s going to happen, but I think it’s going to be beautiful,” said second baseman Brandon Phillips.
