Bud Selig’s Final All-Star Game as MLB Commissioner


Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig sat down with his hometown Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on the eve of his final All-Star Game as commissioner. He talked about the All-Star game and the state of baseball in general. He says it’s actually a myth that the tie that ended the 2002 All-Star game led to the decision to have the game determine home field advantage for the World Series. He says he’s most proud of baseball’s economic growth in his time as commissioner, from $1.2 billion a year in 1992 to nearly $9 billion this year.
