The East-West All-Star Game was a showcase of baseball talent that drew fans from all over.  A game so grand, it consistently drew more fans than the MLB All-Star Game.  Bob Kendrick reflects on the origin of the East-West game, its impact on the community and talks about the legacy of the game with Tony Gwynn Jr. and Josh Barfield, two former players who participated in the East-West Classic game played at Doubleday Field in Cooperstown.
