m.l.b. midsummer classic

the american league wins the 2008 all-start game at yankee stadium with a 4-3 win in 15 innings on a sacrifice fly by michael young scoring justin morneau from 3rd in a close play at the plate. the game tied a record for longest game by innings (15) and broke a record for longest game by time at 4h50m. the american league is unbeaten in the last 12 all-star games (including the tie game in 2002). the managers of boht the a.l. and n.l. are happy in one respect - they had used their last pitchers that were available for the game. j.d. drew wins the ted williams trophy for all-star mvp and wins a 2009 chevy tahoe hybrid in the process. a long night.
