The FINANCIAL -- As the Major League Baseball All-Stars take the field tonight on FOX, Pepsi MAX is announcing an All-Star roster of its own - the fan-selected Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams American League and National League teams comprised of some of baseball's greatest legends.
From the ballots cast, two lucky consumers – Johnny Perotti representing the AL and Stephen Katchmark representing the NL - have been randomly selected to take the field with the MLB legends in an AL vs. NL match-up, and will campaign for votes to see who will have home field advantage for the Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams Game. As PepsiCo reported, to announce the Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams AL and NL teams, actor Jay Mohr was on hand at the Pepsi MAX footprint at MLB All-Star FanFest earlier today with Cal Ripken, Jr. representing the Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams AL team and Mike Schmidt representing the Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams NL team.
"It's exciting to be part of the Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams program because it connects directly with the fans," said Cal Ripken, Jr., Baseball Hall of Famer and Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams AL shortstop. "The guys on the AL and NL rosters are some of the greatest players of all time, and it's truly an honor to be chosen by the fans for their Field of Dreams Team."
"Pepsi MAX is looking forward to creating a once-in a lifetime experience for Johnny Perotti and Stephen Katchmark," said Heidi Sandreuter, Senior Director, Pepsi Sports Marketing. "It's not every day that you get to take the field with some of the greatest players of the game and we are excited to find out which hometown will be hosting the Pepsi MAX MLB Field of Dreams Game."
