T HE F IRST A LL-S TAR G AMEby Jerome Holtzman, Official Historian, MLBIt was in 1933, the year of the Chicago Centennial. The city was strangling in the grip of the Depression. Municipal governments were on the brink of bankruptcy, but a remarkable number of Chicago businessmen invested for a gala, Century of Progress, which evolved into the famous Chicago Worlds Fair. Ed Kelly, then the mayor of Chicago, approached his friend, Colonel Bertie McCormick, publisher of the Chicago Tribune, early in 1933. Kelly thought it would be appropriate if a sports event could be arranged as an adjunct to the Chicago Worlds Fair. Weve got the man you want right here, McCormick replied. And ten minutes later Tribune Sports Editor Arch Ward was in McCormicks office. Colonel McCormick had some doubts. What if nobody shows up? Ward was certain he could fill Comiskey Park, the home of the White Sox, and told the publisher, You can take the losses out of my paycheck. If youre that confident well underwrite it, McCormick said. Six months later, baseballs first All-Star Game, matching the best players in the American and National Leagues, was born. The Game of the Century, as it was billed, was scheduled for July 6th -- a day when eastern teams traveled west and vice-versa -- and Comiskey Park was chosen over Wrigley Field by a coin toss. It was played in ideal weather and drew a paid crowd of 47,595. Twenty-four future Hall of Famers comprised the first rosters, but few grasped the magnitude of the event. Hall of Famer Joe Cronin, the ALs starting shortstop, said 50 years later, Although much is being made today of the fact that we played in the 1933 All-Star Game, we also considered it a great honor then because we thought it would be the one and only All-Star Game. Appropriately, Babe Ruth hit the first All-Star Game home run, a two-run smash that led the American League to a 4-2 victory. Thats a grand show, said Commissioner Judge Landis, who immediately decreed that the All-Star Game become an annual affair. Dad never thought the game would go beyond one year, recalled Tom Ward, Archs son. He felt it would be strictly a one-shot thing. He was very surprised. Ward picked the managers, Connie Mack of the Philadelphia Athletics for the AL, John McGraw of the New York Giants for the NL. The players were chosen by public ballot conducted by 55 newspapers throughout the country, which relayed their tabulations to the Tribune. Tom Littlewood, who wrote Wards biography, Arch - A Promoter Not a Poet, revealed that Ward wasnt the first with the idea. As early as 1915, F.C. Lane, the editor of Baseball Magazine, had made a similar proposal. Lane met with the league presidents and some of the club owners but failed to convince them an All-Star Game would be beneficial. Archibald Burdette Ward was a non-writing sports editor -- his prose was pedestrian, but he was among the outstanding promoters of his time. He also created the College All-Star Football Game and was the architect of the All-America Football Conference, subsequently absorbed by the National Football League. He was born on December 27, 1886 in Illinois Kankakee County and was the sports editor of the Tribune for 25 years. He died on July 9, 1955 and was buried on the morning of the 22nd All-Star Game. This season -- 77 years after Arch Ward coordinated the first Major League Baseball All-Star Game -- the event has grown into a spectacular week of events that not only includes the game, but the State Farm Home Run Derby on Gatorade All-Star Workout Day, the XM All-Star Futures Game, the Taco Bell All-Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game and Major League Baseball All-Star FanFest. Several hundred thousand people will have the opportunity to experience All-Star Week in Anaheim, while more than 100 million fans around the world will tune in or listen to All-Star Week events on television and radio. 10 2010 ALL-STAR GAME


ROSTER L IMITSEach team had 18 players for the first game and 30 of them played, although the American League stayed with its starting lineup - except for pitching changes - until Sam West replaced Babe Ruth defensively in the ninth inning. The standard roster limit was 28 players per team from 1969-1997. The roster limit was increased to 30 players per team in 1998 and remained that way until 2003, when it was increased to 32 players per team. In 2009, a 33rd roster spot was added for each team to carry an additional pitcher. In 2010, rosters were expanded from 33 players to 34, consisting of 21 position players and 13 pitchers.

U MPIRESFrom 1933-1948, each league sent two umpires to the All-Star Game. Between 1949-1999, three umpires represented each league. Beginning with the 2000 Midsummer Classic, six Major League Baseball umpires have worked the game. Lon Warneke, who was named to five All-Star teams as a pitcher for Philadelphia and St. Louis, is the only player to also appear in an All-Star Game as an umpire (1952).

M EDIA C OVERAGESince the first All-Star Game was looked upon as a one-time affair and some viewed it as a Chicago Tribune event, the inaugural game was not covered extensively by the newspapers. Not all of the Major League teams were even represented by writers from their home city, recalled John Carmichael, retired columnist of the Chicago Daily News and press box observer at the first game. For the 2010 All-Star Game, over 2,000 writers, photographers and broadcasters will be credentialed to accommodate the worldwide coverage of the event. The first televised baseball game did not occur until 1939 when the All-Star Game was already six years old. Network coverage of the All-Star Game began in 1950. The 1950 game at Chicagos Comiskey Park - which was the first extra-inning contest in All-Star Game history - was covered by NBC with Jack Brickhouse announcing. Only three cameras - all black and white - were used. The game was broadcast by 48 stations and was viewed by an estimated 10 million fans. NBC provided continuous coverage of the All-Star Game from 1950 to 1975. Beginning in 1976, ABC and NBC alternated coverage, with ABC televising during even-numbered years and NBC televising during odd-numbered years. From 1990-1993, CBS provided exclusive coverage of the All-Star Game. In 1994 and 1995, The Baseball Network -- a joint partnership of ABC, NBC and Major League Baseball -- produced coverage of the Midsummer Classic. From 1995-2000, as part of a five-year agreement, NBC Sports broadcasted the All-Star Game in even-numbered years, while FOX televised the Midsummer Classic in odd-numbered years. This year, FOX Sports will once again provide exclusive domestic coverage of the 81st All-Star Game. In July 2006, FOX signed a seven-year extension to provide regular season, All-Star Game and postseason coverage of Major League Baseball. As part of the agreement, FOX will provide exclusive coverage of the All-Star Game each season from 2007-2013. Major League Baseball International (MLBI), which works to promote the worldwide growth of baseball through broadcasting, marketing, sponsorship, licensing and game development initiatives, will independently produce the world feed in high and standard definition. Gary Thorne will join former All-Star Rick Sutcliffe to call the action in English. Television crews from ESPN International (worldwide), Fox Sports International, Fuji TV (Japan) and NHK (Japan) will join the MLBI team on site covering the games live. Additionally, news crews from Armed Forces Network (worldwide), Fox Sports (Latin America), Guangdong TV (China) and Rogers Sportsnet (Canada) will converge on Anaheim and file reports from the ballpark. ESPN will provide exclusive coverage of several other All-Star Week events, including the XM All-Star Futures Game and the Taco Bell All-Star Legends and Celebrity Softball Game on Taco Bell All-Star Sunday and the State Farm Home Run Derby on Gatorade All-Star Workout Day.

T HIS DATE IN A LL-S TAR G AME H ISTORY, J ULY 13 THThe 2010 All-Star Game will be the 81st Midsummer Classic, and the 12th to be played on the date of July 13th. The American League, who has hosted eight of the previous 11 July 13th games, has a 7-4 advantage in the 11 contests.

1943 S HIBE PARK , P HILADELPHIA A.L., 5-3The 11th All-Star Game was the first time Philadelphia hosted the Midsummer Classic. It was also the first time the All-Star Game was played at night. Unfortunately, many of the most popular names in baseball, including Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams and Johnny Mize, were not present because of wartime efforts. It was the only time in the 20th century that a New York Yankee would not play in the All-Star Game. In the first inning, Stan Musial, in his first of 24 consecutive All-Star Game appearances, knocked in the first run for the National League. The American League answered back in the second inning with a three-run home run from Bobby Doerr before scoring runs in the third and fifth innings. The N.L. rallied to score a run in the seventh inning and received another run from Vince DiMaggios homer in the ninth. DiMaggio fell a double shy of hitting for the cycle in his three-for-three performance. Despite outhitting the A.L., the N.L. was unable to deliver the runs and the American League went on to win 5-3, winning their eighth of the 11 All-Star games played.

1948 S PORTSMAN S PARK , S T. LOUIS A.L., 5-2The 15th Midsummer Classic was played at Sportsmans Park, the home of both the St. Louis Browns and the St. Lousi Cardinals, and it was the second time the All-Star Game was played in the city of St. Louis (also 1940). The National League had an opportunity to take advantage of an injured American League roster as Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams were forced into pinch-hitting roles due to their injuries. The N.L. started the scoring early with two runs off Walt Masterson in the first inning, but would not be able to push across another run in the game. In the second inning, Walter Hoot Evans hit a home run for the A.L. in his first All-Star Game plate appearance. In the bottom of the fourth, the A.L. rallied to load the bases before Joe DiMaggio and pitcher Vic Raschi knocked in the three runs to put the A.L. ahead 5-2 for good. The N.L. tried to keep A.L. hitters off balance with numerous pitching changes, but the end result was the third consecutive victory for the American League. The 1948 All-Star Game was the first in which neither team committed an error during a Midsummer Classic.

1954 M UNICIPAL S TADIUM , C LEVELAND A.L., 11-9The 1954 All-Star Game was was the 21st Midsummer Classic and it was the second time that the game had taken place in Cleveland. Municipal Stadium played host with 68,751 fans in attendance, representing the second-highest AllStar Game attendance at the time and currently the third-highest. The lead was traded back and forth between the teams for most of the game, but with the A.L. trailing by one run in the top of the eighth inning, Dean Stone entered to pitch for the A.L. and threw Red Schoendienst out while he was trying to steal home. In the bottom of the inning, Larry Doby came to the plate as a pinch-hitter and delivered a gametying home run. Later in the inning, after the A.L. had loaded the bases, Nelson Fox came up with a hit that drove in the winning runs for the A.L., ending the N.L.s four-game winning streak. Bobby Avila of the A.L. tied the record for most singles in an All-Star Game during the contest with three, while the A.L.s Al Rosen tied the record for most home runs in an All-Star Game with two. Rosen also tied the record for most RBI with five. The combined 20 runs scored by the two teams also set a record at that time. 18 2010 ALL-STAR GAME


1960 (2) YANKEE S TADIUM , N EW YORK N.L., 6-0 In the summer of 1960, the All-Star Games were played in the form of a double-header. The second game took place in New York and signified the return of Willie Mays to the city where his Major League career began. Mays helped lead the N.L. to a victory, going 3-for-4 with a home run in the third inning. The National League also gathered support from Stan Musial, who had a pinch-hit home run in the seventh inning. Ken Boyer and Eddie Mathews also homered for the senior circuit. The pitching staff combined for a shutout, allowing eight hits in the contest. The N.L. went on to win 6-0, and it was the first time and only time that they won both AllStar Games in a single season. This Midsummer Classic also represented the eighteenth and final All-Star Game appearance by Ted Williams. 1965 M ETROPOLITAN S TADIUM , M INNESOTA N.L., 6-5 The 37th meeting between the American League and the National League was Minnesotas first time hosting the Midsummer Classic. The N.L. lineup was filled with future Hall of Famers and baseball legends, including Willie Mays, Roberto Clemente, Hank Aaron, Willie Stargell, Richie Allen, Joe Torre, Ernie Banks, Pete Rose and Frank Robinson. Mays started the game off with a lead-off home run that went 415 feet to left field. Mays also had two walks and scored the game-winning run for the N.L. in the seventh inning on an infield single from Ron Santo. Overall, it was the National Leagues superior pitching which resulted in their 6-5 victory. Juan Marichal was awarded the Most Valuable Player after pitching three shutout innings. For the first time in All-Star Game history, the N.L. took the Midsummer Classic lead, 18-17-1. 1971 T IGER S TADIUM , D ETROIT A.L., 6-4 The 43rd Midsummer Classic was the third time the Tigers played host to the All-Star Game, having also hosted the game in 1941 and 1951. In the top of the third inning, Hank Aaron hit a home run for his first career All-Star Game homer. Trailing 3-0 in the bottom of the third, Reggie Jackson came to bat for the American League and hit a massive home run off Dock Ellis. The two-run home run cleared the roof of the stadium and hit one of the light towers over 400 feet from home plate. Frank Robinson also hit a two-run homer, putting the A.L. up 4-3 after three innings. The home run from Robinson was the first time a player had hit a home run for both leagues in All-Star Game history. Roberto Clemente would score the N.L.s last run in the eighth by hitting a home run in his final All-Star Game appearance. There were a total of 18 future Hall of Famers to play in the Midsummer Classic, and all six of the home runs hit in the game were hit by future Hall of Famers. The A.L.s 6-4 victory ended their eight-game losing streak. 1976 V ETERANS S TADIUM , P HILADELPHIA N.L., 7-1 The 1976 All-Star Game was the third time the A.L. and N.L. met in Philadelphia, but it was the first time the game was played at Veterans Stadium. Philadelphia was chosen as the host site for the Midsummer Classic in honor of Americas bicentennial. The N.L. outhit the A.L. 10-5 and they scored seven runs en route to the 7-1 victory. The N.L. scored early, putting up two runs in the first, higlighted by a Steve Garvey triple. The N.L. added two more runs in the fourth on a two-run homer from George Foster. The only run scored by the A.L. came on a solo home run by Fred Lynn in the fourth inning. The N.L.s win was their fifth consecutive victory. Mark Fidrych became only the second rookie to ever start as a pitcher in the All-Star Game, joining Dave Stenhouse, who started the second All-Star Game in 1962.ANGEL STADIUM, ANAHEIM 19


1982 O LYMPIC S TADIUM , M ONTREAL N.L., 4-1The 53rd Midsummer Classic was the first time an All-Star Game was played outside of the United States. Olympic Stadium in Montreal was filled with 59,057 fans in attendance, the tenth-highest attended All-Star Game in history. The American League was able to score a run in the first inning, but was unsuccesful at converting hits into runs over the final eight innings. Rickey Henderson tied the All-Star Game record for most singles in a game with three. In the second inning, Dennis Eckersley permitted a two-run homer to the N.L.s Dave Concepcion. The N.L. picked up two more runs in the third and sixth innings, and the game ended with the National League recording their 11th consecutive win over the American League.

1993 C AMDEN YARDS , B ALTIMORE A.L., 9-3The American League collected their sixth straight All-Star Game victory in 1993 at Camden Yards in Baltimore, and the game yielded one of the most memorable moments in recent All-Star Game history when imposing left-hander Randy Johnson threw a blazing fastball to the screen with John Kruk at the plate. The game belonged to Kirby Puckett, who came through with a home run and an RBI-double after failing to collect an extra-base hit in his previous seven All-Star appearances. Pucketts efforts earned him Most Valuable Player honors and it helped deliver the win the American League and Jack McDowell, who would go on to win the 1993 A.L. Cy Young Award. Puckett became the first player in Minnesota Twins history to win the MVP award. Gary Sheffield, who was traded to the Florida Marlins from the San Diego Padres on June 24th, became the first player from a first-year expansion team to be elected to the All-Star Game starting lineup.

1999 F ENWAY PARK , B OSTON A.L., 4-1 The 1999 All-Star Game at Fenway Park was a celebration of baseballs past and present, and played host to one of the most touching scenes in All-Star Game history. The pregame ceremonies featured the introduction of 41 baseball legends, including Stan Musial, Hank Aaron and Willie Mays, but the largest ovation belonged to 80-year-old Boston hero Ted Williams. Escorted on a golf cart, Williams threw out the ceremonial first pitch as stars of the past and present surrounded him for an emotional embrace. Moments later, Red Sox ace Pedro Martinez took the mound and etched his name into All-Star history by striking out the first four batters he faced, and five total in his two innings of work. The American League capitalized on Pedros energy and scored two in the bottom of the first inning. The runs proved to be more than enough as the A.L. went on to defeat the National League 4-1, with Martinez picking up the win and MVP honors in front of the hometown fans. The teams combined for 22 strikeouts, an All-Star record for a nine-inning game.

2010 ALL-STAR GAME


2004 M INUTE M AID PARK , H OUSTON A.L., 9-4 The 75th Midsummer Classic was a struggle from the beginning for the National League. Roger Clemens started for the N.L. in front of his hometown fans on two days rest and allowed a two-run homer to Manny Ramirez in the first inning, followed by a three-run shot from eventual Most Valuable Player Alfonso Soriano. The six-run inning was the most one team had scored in an inning in an All-Star Game since the A.L. tallied a record seven runs in the third inning in 1983. It was also only the second time in All-Star history that a team has scored six runs in a single inning. The six-run deficit was too much for the N.L., especially after David Ortiz added a 423-foot two-run blast off Carl Pavano in the sixth inning. The N.L. scored three runs in the fourth inning with an RBI-double from Edgar Renteria and a two-run double by Albert Pujols. Mark Mulder picked up the victory for the American League, their seventh consecutive All-Star Game victory. At 73-years-old, National League manager Jack McKeon became the oldest manager to manage an All-Star Game after becoming the oldest manager to manage a World Series in 2003 with the Florida Marlins.

A LL-S TAR G AMES IN A NGELS H ISTORYThe 2010 Midsummer Classic marks the third All-Star Game played at Angel Stadium. The Angels previously played host to the All-Star Game in 1967 and 1989 when the stadium was called Anaheim Stadium. The American League and National League have split the previous two All-Star Games in Anaheim.

JULY 11, 1967 ANAHEIM STADIUM, ANAHEIM N.L., 2-1 (15)The first All-Star Game in Anaheim was a game for the ages -- a 15-inning, three-hour and 41-minute affair that featured 20 future Hall of Famers. The 46,309 fans in attendance were treated to a pitchers duel as the teams combined to rack up a then-record 30 strikeouts. The game was deadlocked at 1-1 after nine innings, with both runs coming off solo home runs by Philadelphias Dick Allen and Baltimores Brooks Robinson. The game remained tied heading into the 15th inning when Cincinnati third baseman Tony Perez hit a solo home run off Oaklandd Jim Catfish Hunter to give the N.L. a 2-1 lead. Mets rookie Tom Seaver came in to preserve Don Drysdales win as Perez went on to collect Most Valuable Player honors, giving the N.L. their second consecutive 2-1 extra-innings victory. Along with the 2008 Midsummer Classic at Yankee Stadium in New York, the 1967 All-Star Game is one of the two longest games by innings.

JULY 11, 1989 ANAHEIM STADIUM, ANAHEIM A.L., 5-3The 1989 Midsummer Classic turned into a one-man show as Kansas Citys Bo Jackson rare combination of power and speed was on display for the entire game. In the top of the first inning, with two outs and two men on base in scoring position, Jackson raced from left field to left-center to catch a Pedro Guerrero liner, keeping the National League off the scoreboard. Jackson then led off the bottom of the first inning with a massive 448-foot homer to center field off San Franciscos Rick Reuschel. He later swiped second base, joining Willie Mays as the only players ever to hit a home run and steal a base in an All-Star Game. The American League went on to win 5-3, with 42-year old Nolan Ryan picking up the win and Jackson taking home the Most Valuable Player trophy.

Angel Stadium Home of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim The Angels have called 2000 Gene Autry Way their home for 32 years since the stadium, then known as Anaheim Stadium, opened in 1966. The stadium originally seated 43,204, but underwent construction between 1979 and 1980 to accommodate the National Football Leagues Los Angeles Rams. The modifications allowed room for 65,158 fans for the 1981 baseball season. Following the Rams departure to St. Louis, renovations to the stadium began once again in 1996 and were completed in time for Opening Day in 1998. On April 1st, 43,311 fans watched as the Angels beat the Yankees, 4-1, at the teams newly renovated ballpark, renamed Edison International Field. Upon its transformation to a baseball-only facility, the stadium was built with convenience, comfort, and courtesy. Some unique amenities included terraced bullpens, widened concourses, new restroom and concession areas, a modernized press box and broadcast booth, family oriented seating sections, state of the art suites and more. Sunday, October 22, 2002 was an exceptional day at the stadium for the Angels and their fans as the club won its first ever World Series, defeating the San Francisco Giants in Game Seven at home. It was the eighth consecutive time a seventh game had been won by the home team dating back to 1982.

Prior to the 2004 season, the park adopted the name Angel Stadium, which it is still called today. 2006 marked a record year for the Angels as they posted a home attendance of 3,406,790, and in 2009, the Angels recorded the seventh consecutive year of attendance numbers totaling over three million. They finished the 2009 season with a home attendance of 3,240,374, the second-highest in the American League and fifth-highest in the Majors.

Anaheim Stadium 1989 Angel Stadium of Anaheim has been the host of the Midsummer Classic on two previous occasions, hosting in 1967 and 1989. The 38th and 60th annual All-Star Games were particularly special because both hold a piece of baseball history. On July 11, 1967, the National League beat the American League, 2-1, in a game that remained tied at 1-1 until the 15th inning. The contest was also the longest Midsummer Classic ever at the time, and it remains as one of just two All-Star Games to last 15 innings. Twenty-two years later, on July 11, 1989, with President Ronald Reagan looking on, the American League claimed a 5-3 victory over the National League as the designated hitter was used for the first time in an All-Star Game.

M OST VALUABLE P LAYER AWARDAt the conclusion of the 81st All-Star Game, the Ted Williams Most Valuable Player will be presented the Arch Ward Trophy. The award is now presented by Chevrolet. Most Valuable Player honors of the Midsummer Classic were dedicated in memory of 18-time All-Star Ted Williams, who passed away on July 5, 2002. The Arch Ward Trophy is named after the late Chicago Tribune Sports Editor who convinced his superiors and baseball officials that a match between the greatest players of the American and National Leagues would be a fitting attraction to the 1933 Worlds Fair in Chicago. The All-Star Game MVP award was first presented in 1962. Known as the Arch Ward Award until 1969, it was renamed the Commissioners Trophy in 1970. In 1985, Commissioner Peter Ueberroth returned the trophys original name in honor of the games founder. In the 44-year history of the award, four players have won the honor twice: Willie Mays (1963, 1968), Steve Garvey (1974, 1978), Gary Carter (1981, 1984), and Cal Ripken, Jr. (1991, 2001). Ken Griffey (1980) and Ken Griffey Jr. (1992) are the only father-son combination in All-Star history to win the award. Sandy Alomar, Jr. (1997) and Roberto Alomar (1998) are the only brothers to win the award. Last years winner was Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Carl Crawford, who made a game-saving grab in left field in the bottom of the seventh inning of a 3-3 game, robbing Colorado Rockies slugger Brad Hawpe of a home run. Only two players have been selected MVP from the losing team - Brooks Robinson (1966) and Carl Yastrzemski (1970). No MVP Award was given in 2002.
