Well the American League’s streak came to an end tonight. The National League hasn’t won the All-Star game since 1996 until tonight! That just seems crazy to me, but like the announcer’s said during the game, Jeter was a rookie and Mauer was still in Little League the last time the NL won.

On a plus, Bailey got to pitch tonight!! I was hoping he would get a chance, since it’s his second year (back to back) to get invited (and sadly didn’t get to pitch last year). And as soon as I saw Bailey warm-up a huge smile came to my face. When he did get a chace to pitch he walked the first batter, but with runners on and 2 outs Bailey got in his groove and got the 3rd out with the next batter.

It was so great to see Cahill & Bailey lined up with the rest of the All-Star players tonight. Way to represent the A’s!!
