1862 STAR PLAYERS ANNOUNCED
ALL-STARS GAME ROSTERS EXPANDED TO MAKE FOR A LARGER EVENT

NEW YORK CITY (July 21, 1862) - The rosters for the latest edition of the National Base Ball Organization All-Stars Game were announced during a luncheon at the St. Nicholas Hotel in New York City this midday.

The telegrams that were sent out to the press reminded everyone of one important fact about this year’s contest: rosters have been expanded from twenty men to a full thirty, with three players for each position and place in the standard pitching rotation now up for selection instead of the two that were selected in each of the three previous editions of the A.S.G. The change was decided on early in the season, as organization executives felt that with two dozen teams in each league recognizing a pair of standout players at each position was not enough.

There are also two points of emphasis to the above decision:

• Not all of the thirty players on each side will play
• All teams do not have to be represented – the A.S.G. is still for the “best of the best”

Players have decided that the captains of any unrepresented teams will still travel to The Elysian Fields for the game, as it represents a great opportunity for prominent members of the playing class to get together and talk shop shortly before the end of the season.

Rosters for the 1862 All-Stars Game are below:
