While thousands pack The Battery, enjoying all the festivities before the MLB All-Star Game, Cobb County DOT crews and police are monitoring the traffic, making sure everything runs smoothly.

'It's been one full week of fun and priceless memories for some of the biggest baseball fans,' said Tammy Moore. 'It's been pretty good.'
Up to 61,000 people are expected in and around Truist Park for the big game Tuesday night. Cobb County DOT crews have staff on site monitoring traffic conditions and making adjustments.

Outside of all the fun, Moore is just happy to continue the longstanding tradition of America's pastime.
'I raised my son at Turner Field and now I'm raising this one at Truist, three generations. We've been here all week,' Moore said. pastime
