This giveaway should brighten your spirit on this cloudy day…

You don't need to shell out ballpark prices to catch the Midsummer Classic. We're sending one lucky winner to Cosm, where the 2026 MLB All-Star Game plays out in Shared Reality on Tuesday, 7/14, putting you closer to every pitch than most seats in Citizens Bank Park!*
