HSBN also believes the game will be a difference-maker.

“The Marlins have been everything we could have asked for in a partner,” said HSBN Vice-President/Director of Operations Anthony Uttariello. “They have put an emphasis on reaching our high school baseball community, and connecting in ways that will make the community proud to call them our hometown team. This all-star event is something we have been pushing for, and the memories created by all the players and fans involved is something that cannot be understated.”

“This will be a great experience for the kids to play their last game at Marlins Park,” said Fitz-Gerald. “What a great way to end the year. Thanks to the Marlins and HSBN.”

Adames also reflected on the magnitude of the event.

“I am pleased, honored, and humbled to have been named the manager for the public Miami all-star team,” said Adames. “Thank you to the Marlins for hosting this event, and thank you to HSBN for the professionalism they show every year as they continue to make not only South Florida, but the rest of the state a great source of information for the baseball community.”

The private school managers will be Broward’s Troy Cameron, from St. Thomas, and Miami’s Jerry Albert, from Belen.

“”What a great opportunity to not only coach some of my players again, but also some of the best players in the county,” said Cameron. “The partnership with HSBN and the Marlins to play this game at Marlins Park is really special and an experience these kids will never forget.”

Albert agreed.

“It is always nice getting to work with and coach kids from other programs in all-star events such as these,” said Albert. “I am sure the kids will be excited about playing at Marlins Park.”
