Atlanta was supposed to host the All-Star Game back in 2021 before MLB decided to move the game from Truist Park in response to Georgia voting changes signed into law by Gov. Brian Kemp.

The 2025 All-Star Game will be the 95th Midsummer Classic, the first held in Atlanta since 2000 when Derek Jeter earned Most Valuable Player honors at Turner Field.

Schiller told Channel 2 Sports Director Zach Klein that more than 30 members of the Braves front office are in Arlington. They are observing, taking notes to making sure Atlanta is ready to run a first-class event for the world to see.

“All eyes are on this event. It’s a way to really showcase the sport, showcase the players and do some really fun things like the Home Run Derby,” Schiller said. “It really puts a lenses toward the city.”
