1934 \u2014 Babe Ruth hit his 700th home run in a 4-2 victory over Tommy Bridges and the Detroit Tigers. Lou Gehrig left in the first with a severe case of lumbago, the most serious threat to his streak. He returned for one at bat the next day.<\/p>\n
1943 \u2014 The first night game in All-Star history, at Philadelphia\u2019s Shibe Park, went to the AL, 5-3, despite a single, triple and home run by NL center fielder Vince DiMaggio of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The big blow was a three-run homer by Bobby Doerr of the Boston Red Sox, which gave the AL the lead for good.<\/p>\n
1945 \u2014 Chicago\u2019s Pat Seerey hit three home runs, a triple and drove in eight runs to lead the White Sox in a 16-4 win over New York at Yankee Stadium.<\/p>\n
1954 \u2014 Pitcher Dean Stone did not retire a batter but received credit for the AL\u2019s 11-9 All-Star victory at Cleveland\u2019s Municipal Stadium. Red Schoendienst tried to steal a run for the NL after Stone was summoned in the eighth inning, but the pitcher\u2019s throw to the plate nailed the runner for the third out.<\/p>\n
1963 \u2014 Early Wynn, at 43, registered his 300th and last victory, pitching the first five innings of Cleveland\u2019s 7-4 triumph over the Kansas City A\u2019s.<\/p>\n
1965 \u2014 The NL took the lead over the AL for the first time since the All-Star series began, winning 6-5 at Metropolitan Stadium in Bloomington, Minn.<\/p>\n
1971 \u2014 Reggie Jackson\u2019s mammoth home run off the power generator on the right-field roof at Tiger Stadium highlighted a barrage of six homers \u2014 three by each team \u2014 as the AL beat the NL 6-4 in the All-Star game.<\/p>\n
1982 \u2014 The NL registered its 11th consecutive All-Star victory over the AL with a 4-1 victory at Montreal\u2019s Olympic Stadium, the first All-Star game played outside the United States. Dave Concepcion\u2019s two-run homer off Dennis Eckersley in the second inning was the deciding hit.<\/p>\n
1993 \u2014 Minnesota\u2019s Kirby Puckett homered and doubled to win the MVP award in the AL\u2019s 9-3 victory in the All-Star game at Camden Yards in Baltimore.<\/p>\n
1999 \u2014 Boston\u2019s Pedro Martinez pitched himself into the All-Star game record book, becoming the first to strike out the first four hitters in an All-Star game, fanning Barry Larkin, Larry Walker and Sammy Sosa in the first inning, and Mark McGwire to start the second. Martinez struck out five in the first two innings \u2014 tying an American League record \u2014 to lead the AL to a 4-1 victory over the National League.<\/p>\n
2010 \u2014 Brian McCann\u2019s three-run double in the seventh inning provided the NL all the offense it needed to capture its first Midsummer Classic since 1996 with a 3-1 victory.<\/p>\n
2013 \u2014 Tim Lincecum threw the second no-hitter in 11 days, a gem saved by a spectacular diving catch by right fielder Hunter Pence in the San Francisco Giants\u2019 9-0 win against the last-place San Diego Padres. Lincecum, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, was the loser when Cincinnati\u2019s Homer Bailey no-hit the Giants on July 2.<\/p>\n
2014 \u2014 Madison Bumgarner became the first pitcher in 48 years to hit two grand slams in a season, and Buster Posey also hit a slam that boosted San Francisco to an 8-4 win over Arizona.<\/p>\n
2021 \u2014 The American League wins the 91st All-Star game with a 5-2 win over the National League for their 8th straight win.<\/p>\n
2022 \u2014 The Blue Jays, who had entered the season with sky-high expectations, fire manager Charlie Montoyo after the team has lost eight of its last ten games and is now barely ahead of the 5th-place Orioles. Bench coach John Schneider takes over as manager on an interim basis, and Casey Candaele is promoted from AAA Buffalo to step into the breach left by Schneider on the coaching staff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"1896 \u2014 Philadelphia\u2019s Ed Delahanty hit four home runs in a losing effort, a 9-8 loss to Chicago.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":750480,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2290],"tags":[187,5,36117,40499,6595,93098,59660,138,81993,26827,42814,43587,27539,27984,3964,1023,6951,10883,5352,9501,34171,10873,9496,6953,5353,93096,10882,76894,93097],"class_list":["post-750479","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-baseball","tag-barry-larkin","tag-baseball","tag-bobby-doerr","tag-brian-mccann","tag-buster-posey","tag-casey-candaele","tag-charlie-montoyo","tag-chicago","tag-dave-concepcion","tag-dean-stone","tag-dennis-eckersley","tag-ed-delahanty","tag-homer-bailey","tag-hunter-pence","tag-john-schneider","tag-larry-walker","tag-lou-gehrig","tag-madison-bumgarner","tag-mark-mcgwire","tag-package-100502-member-choice-sports-option","tag-pat-seerey","tag-pedro-martinez","tag-product-30599-ap-sports-news-s-wire-only","tag-reggie-jackson","tag-sammy-sosa","tag-this-date-in-baseball-july-13","tag-tim-lincecum","tag-tommy-bridges","tag-vince-dimaggio"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/750479","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=750479"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/750479\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/750480"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=750479"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=750479"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=750479"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
