It looks like the Kansas City region is getting an All-Star reputation. Major League Soccer officials announced Thursday that Livestrong Sporting Park in Kansas City, Kansas, will be the site of the 2013 MLS all-star game on July 31st. That's just one year after Kauffman Stadium hosted the Major League Baseball 2012 All-Star Game. Kansas Public Radio's Greg Echlin reports that the MLS version of its midsummer classic uses a format...and an opponent...that's different from other leagues' all-star celebrations.
