 The 94th Midsummer Classic was last night as the American League and National League All-Stars faced off. The game featured Pittsburgh Pirates rookie phenom pitcher Paul Skeens on the mound, becoming the first rookie to be the starting pitcher at an All-Star game since Adeo Nomo in 1996. Skeens pitched one inning and no hit ball before being replaced. In the end, it was the American League getting a 5-3 victory over the NL. Boston's Jaron Duran was named MVP after hitting a two-run homer in a contest.
