Did you know that the 1958 Midsummer Classic was the first to be played where neither league had an extra base hit?

Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Stan Musial, Al Kaline, Mickey Mantle & Ted Williams each had no less than two plate appearances and nothing but singles were hit.

Vice-President Richard Nixon threw out the first pitch and on July 14, 1970, he became the first sitting U.S. President to attend a night-time All-Star contest.
