The Cougars will
host the 2012 Midwest League All-Star Game
on Tuesday, June 19 at 6 p.m. That
afternoon, the Cougars will also host an
All-Star Game Fan Fest to precede the
evening game. The fan-friendly event will
feature a variety of baseball-themed fun
including music, on-field fan opportunities,
autograph sessions, food and more. The Fan
Fest will also include the popular “Sunday
Funday” entertainment that was featured last
season at the ballpark, including face
painters, balloon artists and interactive
displays.
SPECIAL
APPEARANCES: Chicago performer Wayne Messmer
will sing the National Anthem and famed
Chicago White Sox organist Nancy Faust will
accompany the game.
The league’s 48th annual mid-season game
featuring the “Best in the Midwest” and
future Major League stars will be the fourth
occasion in which the Cougars have hosted,
most recently in 2007 as well as in 2000 and
in 1993. Those games featured the likes of
Albert Pujols (’00 All-Star), Jake Peavy
(’00 All-Star) and Clayton Kershaw (’07
All-Star). Other Midwest League All-Stars
over the years include Gary Gaetti, Shawon
Dunston, Dave Stewart, Mike Scioscia, Alex
Rodriguez, Miguel Cabrera and Prince
Fielder. Get ready for some of the best
baseball action you can find, along with
entertainment from the Zooperstars, the
Jesse White Tumblers and the Cubs Dixieland
Band. We’ll also light up the sky following
the game for one of the best fireworks shows
you’ve ever seen!
