All-Star game The
2000 Major League Baseball All-Star Game was played in Atlanta. It was the 71st midsummer classic featuring the
American League (AL) and
National League (NL). The game was played on July 11, 2000 at
Turner Field. Five members of the Braves were part of the All-Star Game.
Andrés Galarraga and
Chipper Jones started at first base and third base, respectively.
Tom Glavine,
Greg Maddux and
Andruw Jones were part of the team as well. The 2000 All-Star Game was one of the few occurrences in which the manager of the host team also managed the home team of the game, in this case, the National League (
Bobby Cox had led the Braves to the
World Series the previous year earning the right to manage the National League). The final score was 6–3 in favor of the American League.
