Over time, many of sports' All-Star Games have deviated far from their original purposes.
The NBA All-Star Game, no longer a potent branding showcase for its rarely-on-television players, has gradually evolved into a glitzy open run. The Pro Bowl has undergone too many format changes to count. The NHL All-Star Game, while fun, has never truly factored into the sports zeitgeist.
Meanwhile, the MLB All-Star Game endures—in part because of its rich tradition, in part because baseball is an extremely difficult sport to phone in, and in part because the format has never really changed. The American League played the National League in 1933, and the American League will play the National League in 2024.
Here's a look at how to watch Tuesday's edition of the "Midsummer Classic."
