The All Star games for the Southern League (featuring some Tennessee Smokies) and the Midwest League (featuring some South Bend Cubs) are both today, as is the All Star Game between the California League and the Carolina League (featuring some Myrtle Beach Pelicans). The Southern League and Midwest League games will be on MiLB.tv, but I do not see a listing for the High A game. The easiest place to find the feeds for those games is probably to just hit the master listing for MiLB.tv. The Midwest League starts at 8:05 PM ET, and the Southern League a few minutes later at 8:30 PM ET.
The final list of All Stars for the farm system looks like this.
From Tennessee we have Paul Blackburn, Juan Paniagua, Tyler Skulina, Victor Caratini, and Chesny Young. Jeimer Candelario and Mark Zagunis were both originally named to the team, but have since been promoted to Triple A.
From Myrtle Beach we have Jake Stinnett, Zach Hedges, Trevor Clifton, and Ian Happ (even though he doesn’t appear on the official roster yet).
And from South Bend we have Carson Sands, Adbert Alzolay, Andrew Ely, Jesse Hodges, Donnie Dewees, and Eloy Jimenez.
Iowa’s All Star Game will be later in the summer, during the major league All Star break.[adinserter block=”1″]
