Under Armour All-America Baseball Game
The Under Armour High School All-America Baseball Game is a high school baseball all-star game held annually to spotlight the United States' top high school players who are juniors or seniors. The game is played in late July or August, at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
Since 2008 and through the 2018 Major League Baseball draft, 318 of the 361 draft-eligible players from the game have been selected in the MLB draft, including 98 first round picks.
History
The game was first played in 2005 as the Cape Cod High School Baseball Classic presented by Under Armour and was played at Spillane Field in Wareham, Massachusetts. Since 2008, Under Armour has served as the title sponsor, with the game hosted at Wrigley Field and enjoying a national audience. Under Armour and the Chicago Cubs have a partnership that preexists Under Armour's title sponsorship. Baseball Factory and Team One Baseball have been involved in both versions of the event, with a committee of their scouts selecting players for each year's game.For several years starting in 2009, Cal Ripken served as the official ambassador of the game. In 2014, Kyler Murray became the first athlete to play in both the Under Armour All-America Baseball Game and the Under Armour All-America Football Game. Through January 2019, Murray, A. J. Brown, Jerrion Ealy, and Maurice Hampton are the only players to appear in both games. At least three Canadian players have appeared in the game; Phillippe Aumont in 2006, Jake Eliopoulos in 2008, and Evan Rutckyj in 2009.
The game is usually played on a Saturday, with related events beginning several days before, including a home run derby. In 2017, the game celebrated its 10th anniversary of title sponsorship by Under Armour; it was decided in extra innings and featured a walk-off hit, both firsts in the game's history, and was won by the American team, 2–1 in 11 innings.
