AL's Huge Bats Win All Star Classic 11-9
In Cleveland on July 14, AL hitters dominated the All Star game led by two homer games from Al Rosen and clutch runs in the late innings. Rosen drove in five and tied a two homer record as the American League surged to a 11-9 victory over the National League, while Nellie Fox delivered a bases loaded single in the eighth to seal the win. The NL complained about a disputed play at the plate and a balk call during a potential steal, but the AL maintained momentum. The victory keeps the AL ahead in the ongoing series, extending their lead to 13-8.
