It's no secret that MLB's season is long and can sometimes use a jolt of caffeine.
Luckily for them, they've come to the right place in 2023 to play the Midsummer Classic: Seattle. With just over two full months left in the regular season, everyone can use that burst of energy and the city's coffee culture should be able to do the trick.
The league's biggest stars (who aren't injured) gather for a vacation in the Pacific Northwest to play a game on the Mariners' diamond. But the American League All-Stars have dominated the contest — winners of nine in a row and 16 of the last 20, with one tie in that span.

Thanks to the long winning streak, they now hold a 47-43 lead in all-time wins over the National League. For the NL stars, it's a good thing this game doesn't determine home-field advantage in the World Series anymore.
Here's what you need to know to watch the National League battle against the American League.
