The Minnesota Twins say they'll make a push to host the 2014 All-Star game in their new stadium.
The Minnesota Twins say they'll make a push to host the 2014 All-Star game in their new stadium.
Twins officials and Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak said Wednesday that the Twin Cities area showed it could handle a major event with last week's Republican National Convention.
The Twins are due to open a new ballpark in 2010 in downtown Minneapolis.
The 2009 All-Star game is in St. Louis, and the Los Angeles Angels will host the 2010 game. Arizona is the expected host in 2011, Kansas City in 2012 and the New York Mets' Citi Field in 2013.
