The Major League Baseball All-Star Game Tuesday night is reserved for those lucky enough to already have tickets or flush enough to be able to score some.

That's hardly the only activity baseball fans can enjoy, though, now that the All-Star Game has turned into a multiple-day festival in the host city. There are a lot of other events directly or indirectly related to the game throughout the area for the estimated 200,000 people who will experience some part of the five-day festival.

The on-field attractions leading up to the game include the All-Star Futures Game, All-Star Legends and Celebrity Softball games and an O.A.R. concert Sunday. Team workouts, the Home Run Derby and a musical performance by Big & Rich are scheduled for July 10. Those who purchased tickets to the All-Star Game were required to purchase blocks that also included the Futures and Legends games and the Home Run Derby.

Starting at 2 p.m. Tuesday, on All-Star Game day, players and managers will be greeted to a red-carpet ride through the city streets, from the Byham Theatre, across the Roberto Clemente Bridge to Federal Street at PNC Park in open-air Chevrolets.

The biggest fan draw away from PNC Park undoubtedly will be FanFest, which officials call an interactive baseball theme park. It runs tomorrow through Tuesday at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center.

More than 400,000 square feet, FanFest has interactive activities and historical exhibits, including life-size video batting and pitching cages, a steal home challenge and a chance to make your own baseball card.

Fans can get autographs from Pirates players and baseball greats from the past, or children can attend skills clinics with current and former major-leaguers.

Exhibits cover everything from the Negro Leagues to the world's largest baseball.

Pirates legend Bill Mazeroski will be on hand for the opening ceremony at 8:30 a.m. tomorrow.

FanFest is open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., except Tuesday, when it closes at 7 p.m. For tickets, visit www.pirates.com, www.mlb.com or the PNC Park box office, or call 1-888-326-3378. Prices range from $15 for children 12 and under, senior citizens and military personnel to $20 for all other adults. Ticket purchasers must select an admission time so the attractions will not be overcrowded at any one time, but once inside visitors can stay as long as they want that day.

A short walk from FanFest, the Heinz Regional History Center and Sports Museum will have "Summer of Baseball" activities tomorrow through Tuesday.

In addition to a display of the museum's All-Star collections, a series of programs from the Baseball Hall of Fame and other baseball-themed events are scheduled each day.

They include performances with "re-enactors" of Roberto Clemente, Jackie Robinson and Willie Stargell, author talks and children's activities such as baseball karaoke, pie-eating contests and pitching cages.

Some of the day-specific highlights at the History Center are:

Tomorrow: A look back at Forbes Field.

Saturday: Free admission for children wearing their youth baseball or softball uniforms.

Sunday: Baseball mascots and, at 6 p.m., a Josh Gibson Foundation gala and silent auction.

Monday: Former Negro League players will have one-on-one discussions and a question-and-answer session from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

An ongoing exhibit at the History Museum is Roberto Clemente -- Photographs by Les Banos.

During the All-Star period, visitors to the History Center will get a $5 discount on admission to FanFest. History Center admission ranges from $3.50 to $7.50. Hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Visit www.pghhistory.org.
