The Voice of the Game

The 2015 MLB All-Star game will be the first played at Cincinnati’s Great American Ballpark and will feature the All-Star debuts of rookies Joc Pederson and Kris Bryant. With those firsts in mind, we decided to take a look at other notable All-Star firsts. The 1996 All-Star Game at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia (pictured) was the first and only All-Star Game where neither pitcher walked a batter.
