PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) – The Washington Wild Things will host this year’s Frontier League’s All-Star Game.
"The Frontier League is extremely pleased to have our 2020 All Star Game in Washington, Pennsylvania,” said Frontier League Commissioner, Bill Lee. “Given the addition of the new teams, it becomes imperative that the premier event of the league be first class. We selected Washington, PA and the Washington Wild Things because we know, from experience, they will create an extraordinary event.”
The Frontier League announced its merger with the Can-Am League in 2019, making it the largest independent baseball league in the country. Teams from Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Ontario, and Quebec make up the league.
“We are honored to be selected for the first-ever All Star Game of the newly expanded league,” said team owner Francine Williams. “For years, the Wild Things have been the team furthest East in the Frontier League, but with the expansion, we have become the geographic center of the league. This will be the third time that Washington has hosted the All Star Celebration.”
The celebrations begin July 13, 2020 with the game set for Wednesday, July 15th.
