Inspired by the city’s deep musical history, the Cleveland Indians on Tuesday unveiled the logo for next year’s All-Star game — a red, white and blue guitar with a body bordered with baseball stitching.

The Indians are hosting the game July 9 for a record sixth time.

The game will coincide with the 25th anniversary of Progressive Field, which was known as Jacobs Field when it hosted the 1997 game.
