The Angels lost 3-1 in eleven innings as Baltimore took the decision behind late runs off reliever Dave Sells. Flashes of history faded into a tough defeat.

Two Forgotten All Stars Return in All Star Game Shuffle
The 44th All-Star game expands rosters as Commissioner Kuhn allows Willie Mays and Nolan Ryan to join the Nationals and American League squads. Managers Anderson and Williams had left them off, but fan interest and Showpiece status prompted the midseason change. Mays would be a late career showcase, while Ryan adds his two no hitters to the AL lineup alongside other star names. The decision follows fan ballots and showcases the game's appeal since 1933.
