Yeah I never really care for the interviews during the game when they're playing competitively, but a game like this where it doesn't matter and the players seem to enjoy it, I'm fine with it.

That mic’d up inning with Alek Manoah was awesome

Yeah that was great, especially when he asked the guys what he should throw lol.

Boring game, as they usually are. 

AL uniforms look awful.

Gonsolin looked like one of our relievers throwing that cookie to Stanton, who parked it 457 ft away.

At least we don't have to endure Joe Buck.

I like the uniforms and the game has been entertaining enough for me

Okay, at least they're good players. A nice little break from our own horrific brand.

I’ll have to check out that Wesley podcast about Lyman Bostock

Game is pretty boring but the player interviews while playing are pretty cool. 

I don't like the uniforms but I like the patch with the number of all star games. MLB gotta sell new uni's y'know. 

Glad the AL is winning. 

Thank god there's no Joe Buck but I hate the Doyers announcer. Such a smug prick.

NL, 0 for their last 20.

We can relate.

[CaliAngel]

Holy crap this Helsley guy throws 102 what the actual crap that's insane.

[Slegnaac]

The mic'd players are a nice touch.  Much better than the regular season games with mic'd players.

[Jay]

Clearly none of these guys care.

I think they care about personal accomplishments. Getting a hit/throwing outs.

As far as the overall game outcome, they shouldn't. Not like the AL or NL is any different anymore.

[m0nkey]

Let me just throw 10 100 mph cutters and strike out the side.  

 

[fan_since79]

I wouldn't mind adding that Cleveland closer. Filthy stuff.

Yeah nothing happened on the field that was entertaining by any means. 

[fan_since79]

I think Johnny Callison's 3-run walk-off homer in 1964 was far greater, but what do I know?

Ted Williams wins the 1941 All-Star game.
