"I got chills when that happened (standing ovation for Ozzie Smith due to his final All-Star appearance). I know Ozzie got very emotional at the plate. I didn't think he was going to be able to take his at bat. I was pleased he just made contact." - Bobby Cox

This was the seventh Midsummer Classic shutout, the fifth by the National League, and the first All-Star shutout since the 1990 All-Star Game.

This was the sixty-seventh All-Star Game played � a game made up of the greatest hitters and pitchers � and the first where neither league allowed a single base on balls.

Did you know that during the pregame photo shoot Cal Ripken, Jr. had his nose broken by Roberto Hernandez? The Iron Man described the incident with, "We were taking the team picture. Roberto (Hernandez) stepped on the platform and it tilted. He threw his arm back to catch his balance and hit my nose. It was a pretty vicious backhand."
