When the NL jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first in the All-Star game, they seemed poised to snap their long losing streak versus the AL. But in the top of the fourth, Giancarlo Stanton hit a 457-foot HR to center to tie the game, and Byron Buxton followed that with a 425-foot shot to left. The back-to-back homers closed the scoring for the night and lifted the American League to a 3-2 win, its ninth straight against the National League. Ten AL pitchers shutout the Senior Circuit over the final eight innings, Emmanuel Clase striking out the side in the ninth for the save.
Zeke (38) closed-out his picks with a Man of Steal to earn King of the Mountain. This was Zeke's second KOTM of the year. Ten other players posted Qualifying Scores: Dano (37), macs detail (37), KLC (34), EricCinTX (34), Mr. Jake 50 (33), Kevin K (33), Barry (32), amcmayonnaise (32), dangerzone (31), and ProGrid Tour winner Ricco1947 (32).
