The Orioles’ Single-A Frederick affiliate announced today that the Keys will host the 2019 Carolina League All-Star Classic. The game will take place at Nymeo Field on Tuesday, June 18, 2019.

The 2019 game will mark the third straight season the Carolina League’s Northern and Southern divisions will face off. Previously, the midsummer classic was an interleague affair, pitting the Carolina League against the California League from 1999-2016. Featuring the top players from all 10 Carolina League teams, the 2019 Carolina League All-Star Classic will showcase some of minor league baseball’s brightest young stars. The game is presented by Visit Frederick.

We would also like to thank Visit Frederick for partnering with us on the Carolina League All-Star Classic and are excited to show off what the city of Frederick has to offer.”

Frederick hosted the All-Star game on June 28, 2005, when the Carolina League bested the California League 8-0. Additionally, Harry Grove Stadium was the site of the 1991 Carolina League All-Star game, which was the Keys’ third season.
