Dale Jr off to Milwaukee after the race: Dale Earnhardt Jr. will fly to Milwaukee Sunday to participate in a variety of activities surrounding the 2002 Major League Baseball All-Star game. In honor of the game (and Budweiser’s status as the official beer of both MLB and NASCAR), the #8 Bud car will carry a special MLB All-Star paint scheme in tonight’s race. Because of testing commitments in Indianapolis, Dale Jr is not able to attend Tuesday night’s game, but will participate in an All-Star celebrity softball game Sunday evening, take. batting practice on the field, and participate in an autograph session Monday afternoon at the “Bud World” display at the park. Dale Jr. will also host the All-Star edition of “This Week in Baseball,” the MLB-produced weekly highlight show. The show airs Saturdays on Fox at 12:30pm.(Budweiser PR)(7-6-2002)
