Jose Fernandez would love to pitch to David Ortiz during Tuesday night's All-Star Game, going as far as to say that he'd love to groove a fastball to the retiring slugger.

"I would love to face David," Fernandez said. "It would be a dream come true for me.

"I told him yesterday that I am going to throw him three fastballs down the middle. I want to watch him hit a home run."

When asked if he'd be bringing his usual 98 mph heat, Fernandez said he'd take a little off his pitches to achieve the goal.

"No -- 90 miles per hour," Fernandez said. "So there is no chance that he fouls them or misses them."
