Dodgers Blame Voting Plan After NL Loss at Ebbets Field
Brooklyn owner Branch Rickey faulted the national fan voting approach after the American League defeated the National League 11 to 7 at Ebbets Field. He argued managers should start players they deem fit, not just top fan selections, and use them as long as needed. The game featured a four unearned run first inning and key plays including Ted Williams’ backhand catch and Joe Dimaggio’s two run double.

Joost Twister Turns All Star Classic
Lou Boudreau credited Eddie Joost with a fourth inning single that broke a 5 5 tie and put the American League ahead 6 5 in the All Star game. Joost described the well placed hit as a slider end of bat with a strange hop that scored Keel and Williams. Ted Williams, Duke DiMaggio and Ralph Kiner homered or made key plays, while the NL blunted by Joosts misfortune and a late rally failed to recover.
