MLB All-Star Game most memorable moments throughout history

FOX is the exclusive home of the 2024 MLB All-Star Game, which takes place Tuesday (8 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app) in Arlington, Texas, home of the Rangers.

Before new memories are made this summer, here are some of the most memorable moments from the Midsummer Classic, in chronological order.

For perspective, a combined 20 pitchers appeared in the 2023 MLB All-Star Game.

The NL took a 5-3 lead into the bottom of the ninth, and then Ted Williams happened.

After the AL got a run home in the inning, Williams came to the plate with two runners on and two out. Then, faced with a 2-1 count, Williams tattooed a pitch from Claude Passeau into the right field seats for a walk-off, three-run home run. 

Williams, who reached base three times (two hits and one walk), became the first player to hit a walk-off home run in the All-Star Game and is just one of three players to do so to date.

In 1946, the AL and NL got together for what still stands today as the largest win in All-Star Game history: a 12-0 AL win in Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox.

Fittingly, Ted Williams, arguably the greatest
