In Kansas City Walter Alston plans an All Star sweep with Vern Law as he saves a 5 3 win for the National League. Bob Friend held the American League to three runs over seven innings, Elroy Face and Law closed as the NL improved to 12 wins in 28 midseason meetings. Willie Mays starred with multiple hits and a near cycle, while Al Kaline homered for the AL. The game raised funds for a player pension plan as 42 of 60 players took part in the first Kansas City All Star game.
