MLB Says No ASG in the ATL

Major League Baseball announced Friday Afternoon that it will not hold its All Star Game in Atlanta in July, after the State of Georgia instituted a new elections law that is thought to be a measure aimed at Black voters who helped flipped the state Blue in November. 

There is no indication of where the 2021 MLB ASG will be conducted; the game is normally worth millions of tourism dollars for the city where it is held. 

A newly renovated Dodger Stadium was to have hosted the game in 2020.
