Send us a textThe first MLB All-Star Game was in 1933.  Yet it is little-known amongst even big baseball fans that because Black players were not allowed in MLB, the Negro Leagues had their own All-Star Games also beginning in 1933.   And these games were both popular and well-attended. We take a look at how the All-Star game in MLB has changed over the years and with Gary Livacari's help (you can check out his old-time baseball photos page on FB and his blog baseballhistorycomesalive.com), we dig into some of the more interesting aspects of the E-W ASG games as well as some famous MLB ASG moments.   Please subscribe to our podcast and thanks for listening!
