Nice tribute to Willie Mays during the pregame ceremony (and Tim McCarver is a huge improvement over Chris Berman last night).

Yes I thought the tribute was great as well... I got goosebumps when he signed and gave Reyes the ball

Willie was my hero when I was just a tyke. Best ever in my opinion.

My only memory of Willie Mays was watching him play in his last all star game in his early 40s: he struck out on 3 pitches, but he went down swinging.

With Brian Roberts on base, Ichiro hits an inside the ballpark homerun!

Pujols took some shots at his manager after the game for not playing him. Sour grapes from Pujols is the last thing I would have expected from him. I think he should have hit in the last inning though. I mean he has been the best hitter in baseball for like the past 5 years.

Ichiro and Reyes are real game changers though. I wish my Yankees had a leadoff guy like that.

Ever notice how the...

Ichiro's inside-the-park was pretty sweet. Is that the first ever at an ASG?

And the Orioles' Brian Roberts scored ahead of him!
