WHY THE NL TOPPED THE AL

The All-Star game was pretty good tonight, although I would have loved to have seen Grandy and Cano just run the show tonight and help give the Al a win and home field advantage. Oh well, that's life right?

Here are a few things that went down tonight:
  • David Robertson's appearance was pretty cool. Good for him. He only allowed 1 hit in his outing and no runs. Now he can say he was in the All-Star game. Congrats pal.
  • Prince Fielder is so strong. 3 run homer tonight and it was just crushed. I don't know what to say, that guy can hit. I always appreciated Cecil Fielder and Prince clearly got all of Cecil's genes because that guy killed the ball tonight. Neat stat, Prince was the first Brewer ever to hit a home run in the All-Star game.
  • The win for the National League goes to Nationals pitcher Tyler Clippard, former New York Yankee. Good for him. Tyler tried to make it in pinstripes but it didn't pan out. Good for him to make the All-Star team as well as get an All-Star win.
  • I have mad respect for Brian Wilson. The dude is a certified nut and you have to love the way he comes in and closes out the game. Domination. Look, he's no Mariano, but he's the next best thing. I'm a fan, beard and all. Got Heeemm.
Final Score: National League 5 - American League 1.
