Bud Selig considers Arizona's new immigration law a political issue and is showing no signs that Major League Baseball will shift next year's All-Star game out of the state. A day after Milwaukee pitcher Yovani Gallardo and other All-Stars said they could envision boycotting the 2011 game at Phoenix in protest, the commissioner never mentioned a possible shift.

"If the game is in Arizona, I will totally boycott," the Milwaukee Brewers pitcher said Monday. A year before Phoenix is set to host baseball's big event, the state's new immigration law kept drawing the attention of major leaguers.
