Why is All-Star game always in NL park?

5 years, 5 NL Parks. If that a feature or a glitch?! Any suggestions how to get it to alternate leagues?

Well if you're using a MLB setup, you've got a 8/15 chance of it being in a NL park each year.

So, .53333 ^ 5 = .0431 , 4.31 % chance of that exact event happening. In perspective, its not quite 1 out of every 20 times that will happen.

I'm assuming here that the game randomly chooses a ball park.

Actually, I'm playing in a league with an even mix of NL and AL teams. And now it's 8 for 8 that the All Star game is in an NL park.
