Buck talking to hitters in the box? This is a new low in gimmickery.

"So, what are you looking for here?"
"I'm looking for your Mom if you don't shut up and let me focus on hitting you overpaid bloviating putz!"

Nice inning from Lynn.

Fox deserved the F bomb from Tatis when he flied out.

It's so nice living through the age of AL domination. Getting wrecked every year by Pete Rose and Co. was no fun.

Nice to see Bryant strikeout

Once again the A.L. (aka a man's league) beats the N.L. in the All-Star (or is it All-Popularity?) Game.

That's eight in a row for the A.L.

Since the 1990 contest the American League is now 24-6-1 !

He looked jet lagged. Hope it does not effect him this weekend.

I don't know . i miss those old all star games with guys like Carl Yastrzemski, Rod Carew, Lou Brock, Reggie Jackson, Catfish Hunter, Frank Robinson, Bob Gibson, Roberto Clemente, Tom Seaver, Hank Aaron, Johnny Bench, Willie McCovey, and yes, Pete Rose . maybe it's because i'm old, but i find the game today boring.

Fun game to watch. Those uniforms were absolutely horrible, though.

Absolutely! I grew up in time where every year after the ASG all my Cubs fans friends would go on and on about how the AL was a joke and the NL was far superior. The 1983 AL victory at Comiskey was the lone exception to the long string of NL wins (I was too young to remember the '71 game). My how the tables have turned. Since 1988, the NL has only won 6 games. That's 33 years!

If they are going to mic players during a game you can't talk to a hitter while he's at the plate or to a pitcher on the mound. That's ridiculous. It works better and makes more sense to mic a position player, like they did with Freeman, and talk to him while he's in the field. That also gave the opportunity to hear runners who reached 1st base. Good idea, just bad execution by Fox.

I don't know anyone who thinks the uniforms look good, but they're not marketed towards me. I wonder if next year they'll have teams wear the city connect uniforms at the All Star Game? I'd rather see that than a bland uniform for each league.
