San Diego Padres fans have something to cheer about this July: pitcher Mason Miller has been selected to represent the team at this month’s MLB All-Star Game, making him the lone Padre chosen for the prestigious midsummer showcase.

The selection is a meaningful milestone for both Miller and the Padres organization, giving San Diego a representative on baseball’s biggest mid-season stage. All-Star selections are determined by a combination of fan voting and player and manager ballots, making the honor a recognition from peers and supporters alike.

Miller’s nod comes as San Diego’s craft beer scene is also drawing positive attention — local brewers are making waves by betting on the growing nonalcoholic craft beer market, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune. The city’s entrepreneurial spirit continues to shine both on the field and in its neighborhoods.

For Padres fans, Miller’s All-Star selection is a bright spot in the summer calendar and a reason to rally behind one of their own on the national stage.
