Just read on Bernies that 2009 ASG in STL
"ST. LOUIS (AP) -- The new Busch Stadium is the leading contender to host baseball's All-Star game in 2009.
Baseball commissioner Bud Selig, speaking during Game 5 of the NL championship series on Tuesday night, was asked about the likelihood of the All-Star game being played in St. Louis in three years.
"I'd say very, very good," Selig said. "I like their chances a lot."
The new Busch Stadium opened in April, across the street from the old Busch, which hosted the All-Star game in 1966.
The 2007 game is scheduled for July 10 in San Francisco and the 2008 event is likely to be played at New York's Yankee Stadium,"
