WJBF Augusta on MSNThree Braves players partake in MLB All-Star Game at Truist ParkThe MLB All-Star game at Truist Park was underway, featuring some of the biggest and brightest stars in the league. The Atlanta braves didn’t have the first half season that they were hoping for– but there are a few of them playing tonight in the midsummer classic.
Not many of the 41,702 who filled Truist Park will remember the All-Star Game’s score. They may remember it was decided in a home-run derby reminiscent of a soccer penalty-kick shootout after the score was tied at 6-6 at the end of nine innings.
On game day, park entrances will open at 5 p.m., with the first pitch scheduled for around 8 p.m. There will be several events Tuesday leading up to the 95th edition of the Midsummer Classic, so it will be very congested around the stadium, The Battery commercial district and the Cobb Galleria Centre.
While Truist Park is more accessible by public transit than you might realize, it nonetheless remains the case that the strong majority of people who attend All-Star festivities will be arriving via car. And of those fans, the strong majority will not be arriving in a rideshare, but with their own car. Which means they'll need parking.
