But the fewest hits a team has Ever gotten in All Star play is three last accomplished when the National leagues Don Drysdale Juan Marichal Steve Carlton Tom Seaver Ron Reed and Jerry Koosman combined to hold the americans in Check in 1968. Or maybe a lot of Home runs. Home runs Are up in both leagues so far especially to the National. Ryne Sandberg and Andre Dawson of the Chicago cubs have a Chance to become the first players to Homer in their own Park at an All Star came since Hank Aaron did it at Atlanta in 1972. Have been a lot of those this year but there Hasni to Ever been a Brawl at the All Star game a although Rickey Henderson did stare hard at Nolan Ryan after getting knocked Down in the 1985 Midsummer classic there a always a Chance for an injury.

This week trying to keep the focus on the Field. And that a where it will be when the americans hoping for their first three game winning Streak since 1946-49, attempt to Dent the nationals 37-22 Edge. At least for a Day off the Fie a matters wont matter. No one will care about Jose Canseco getting $23 million. The fans will Only wonder whether he can get around on Rob Dibble a fastball. There wont be any comment when Cal Ripken or. Does no to play every inning. Seeing Alan Trammell replace him at shortstop will be Fine. Of course even at the All Star break there a bound to be Trade talk. How interesting now that John Franco and Randy Myers Are on the same team for one game and that Cleveland a Sandy Alomar or. Will be facing his brother and former teammate san Diego second baseman Roberto. Perhaps a fight instigated by a Brus Baek pitch. There a that is not baseball a Vincent reminded everyone two that have marked this season though resign _. By the game will not be called off because of a lockout.
