The 2018 All-Star Game
The 89th All-Star Game owed Nationals Park nothing more. It\u2019s mere presence here, after all this time, was enough. And yet, as if out of a sense of obligation to make up for lost time, it delivered a little bit of history, a little bit of drama and a steady and unprecedented stream of long fly balls leaving the yard.\n\nThere were 10 homers on Tuesday night, obliterating a 47-year-old record for a single All-Star Game. In 1971, when six homers were launched, the hitters in question were Johnny Bench, Hank Aaron, Reggie Jackson, Frank Robinson, Harmon Killebrew and Roberto Clemente. This time, the 10 hitters were Aaron Judge, Mike Trout, Willson Contreras, Trevor Story, Christian Yelich, Jean Segura, Scooter Gennett, Bregman, Springer and Joey Votto WP
