Commissioner Bud Selig announces Petco Park will be the site of the All-Star Game in 2016, making it the first time that the same league will play host in consecutive seasons since Pittsburgh’s PNC Park and San Francisco’s AT&T Park were the venues in 2006-07. The contest will mark the third Midsummer Classic held in San Diego, following 1978 and 1992 games played at Jack Murphy Stadium.
