Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred says Fenway Park ‘would be a great venue' for an All-Star Game, but when?
'Time is one issue. Level of interest of the club is another issue,' Manfred said. 'The Red Sox have certainly expressed interest.'

The Athletics haven't hosted since 1987, but they won't have a suitable facility until their new stadium is built in Las Vegas.
The Rays have never hosted and won't be candidates unless they build a new stadium to replace Tropicana Field. The team is in the process of being sold, which could expedite that long-delayed process.
The Rays are playing at 10,046-seat Steinbrenner Field in Tampa this season after Hurricane Milton destroyed the roof of Tropicana Field.
Manfred said he is confident the roof will be repaired in time for the 2026 season.
The Rays, who are 1½ games out of a wild-card spot, would play any home playoff games at Steinbrenner Field this season.
