All-Star Game: We didn’t watch one bit of the All-Star game yesterday because we were too busy moving into our new Mexico City apartment. Nonetheless, we hear it was an exciting, 15-innings worth of somewhat important baseball. Justin Morneau, HR Derby king, scored the winning run in the 15th inning and the AL stretched its winning streak to 12 years. AL 4, NL 3. [NY Times]
