PARADISE VALLEY, Ariz. (AP) -- San Diego's Petco Park will host baseball's All-Star game in 2016, marking 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.
''San Diego is a beautiful city,'' Bud Selig said Thursday after his final owners' meeting as baseball commissioner, ''and showcasing Petco Park will be a remarkable opportunity for the Padres franchise and all of Major League Baseball.''
