The dream of playing baseball in Fenway Park comes true for 48 high school athletes as they meet in the shadow of the Green Monster for the annual All-City High School Baseball Classic. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is being hosted by Mayor Thomas M. Menino and the Boston Centers for Youth and Families at Fenway Park in partnership with the Boston Red Sox.

The Baseball Classic will showcase All-Stars from 16 Boston public high schools competing in two divisions, North and South, with players selected by their coaches. Admission to the public is free. Parents and fans who would like to take part in this unique night at Fenway Park may enter through Gate D on Yawkey Way.

Teammates, coaches, students, school staff, friends, and families will gather to cheer on their favorite athletes, and New England colleges and university athletic departments are contacted to invite coaches and scouts to the games.

Academic achievement will be recognized with awards presented to selected scholar/athletes from each school with a grade point average of 3.0 or better. All players will receive awards for their participation in this event during an awards presentation immediately after the game.
