I’ve seen the American League’s All-Star Game victory last night referred to as their “continued dominance” of the National League, since it’s been over a decade since the last NL win.
Let’s be honest, though. The only dominance in evidence last night was Dan Uggla’s dominating three errors and 0-4, 3K, GIDP, 6 LOB line. Yikes.
Never mind that. Russell Martin surely was, as the marveling Joe Buck put it, a “magician” behind the dish last night. And how about that eight-pitch battle versus the vaunted Mariano Rivera? What a showcase of our young catcher — a true All-Star performance.
