#358---All-Star Game, 7/17/2018

 

A second consecutive All-Star game was played in an NL park and went to extra innings. Thirteen of the fourteen runs scored in this game came on homers:

* Aaron Judge, solo, T2 (1-0 AL)

* Mike Trout, solo, T3 (2-0)

* Willson Contreras, solo, B3 (2-1)

* Trevor Story, solo, B7 (2-2)

* Jean Segura, three runs, T8 (5-2)

* Christian Yelich, solo, B8 (5-3)

* Scooter Gennett (most surprising All-Star), two runs, B9 (5-5)

* Alex Bregman and George Springer, back-to-back to leadoff T10 (7-5)

* Joey Votto, leading off B10 (8-6)

The lone none-homer run was the insurance run Michael Brantley added with a sac fly for the AL in the top of the tenth.
