PrintWell, it's the All Star game. Whether you like it or not, it's going to happen. Wasn't sure if someone was going to make a Game Thread for this, but I've got nothing else going on, so here it is. Oh, and Joe Buck is leading the charge with his commentary. Maybe some lively discussion will take place tonight on the air. You never know what's possible during the All Star Game. They're going through introductions right now. Quite a lot of boos for the AL guys in an NL park. That's kind of weird. Oh, it was for Russell Martin. Understandable. Anyways, best of luck tonight to OUR All Star, Heath Bell as he represents the San Diego Padres tonight. And I guess Kevin Correia too. At least he wasn't hated after he left.
Oh yeah, almost forgot. I'm rooting for the National League to win it tonight.

Just a scoreless 1st, Joe?
Try perfect game. Or do you not want to talk about those tonight?

Correia is on the team? That's nice
I’m happy to see him doing well ‘cos he doesn’t talk crap about us, at least as far as I know. And you know, having your younger brother DIE is far worse than not flying on private planes.
I’m rooting for Wilson to blow the save. Anyone else?
25 years as a baseball fan and I'm still confused by the infield fly rule
Correia is letting his pitching do the talking
And yes, Wilson to blow the save because we all know Bochy isn’t going to use him anywhere else but the 9th is even at all. Same with his other guys.

not hype
he’s good and we knew he would rock the AL
This is like one of those…but I knew him when blah blah blah stories.
On the other hand, you have different fingers.
Yes,
We knew he was good. To everyone else, he was just a good NL hitter.

Ugh, anyone but Adrian for MVP.

and this is his cheap year…

the kid will be more impressed when Heat is playing for the Yankees or Cards
right now, he has never heard of him

Bell is just the mandatory SD representative now
Like Heath got a free ride.

That’s kind of a dumb thing to say since they’ve been leading after Fielder’s homer.

Besides Heath and Brian Wilson, who hasn't pitched for the NL?

A lot of guys
Matt Cain, SF
Kevin Correia, PIT
Cole Hamels, PHI
Joel Hanrahan, PIT
Tim Lincecum, SF
Jonny Venters, ATL
Ryan Vogelsong, SF

I had no idea it was that many. Funny that Bochy doesn’t want to use his guys.
