The Hall of Fame came up with a replacement for the Hall of Fame Game:

Baseball's legends and old-timers will play in a new Hall of Fame Classic game beginning in 2009.

The inaugural Hall of Fame Classic will be held on Father's Day, June 21. The game replaces the Hall of Fame Game, which was discontinued this year after 68 years.

This might even be more fun. Instead of a group of minor leaguers filling in, their will be players people know and care about. It's a nice compromise.
