Classic Baseball Radio

The All-Star Game of All-Star Games, 13th July, 1971


Listen Later

You expect to see the big names in any All-Star Game. But in 1971, the two rosters between them featured 21 players who would eventually reach the Hall Of Fame. Of the 16 position players, 10 would reach Cooperstown.

Willie Mays opens up the batting; Roberto Clemente makes his last All-Star appearance; Hank Aaron reaches the fence for the first time in the Summer Classic; heck, even Pete Rose pops up. If you want to watch out for something special, count off how many home runs are hit, and how many are hit by future Hall of Fame'es. You'll never listen to another game like this one.

Calling the game for NBC Radio are Jim Simpson and Sandy Koufax.

You can find the boxscore here.

This game was played on July 13th, 1971.
