Michael Young Wins MLB All-Star Game With 15th Inning Sac Fly; J.D. Named MVP

Michael Young Saves Bud Selig From Himself
>7 days ago
Finally, it's over.
As soon as J.D. Drew's 7th inning home run barely cleared the right field, I didn't want to watch the rest, fearful of another "Bud Selig Tie" rearing it's ugly head. Or is it Uggla head?
The story of the night will be the AL's continuing dominance, a Red Sox winning the MVP at Yankee Stadium and all the pomp and circumstance before the game complete with a George Steinbrenner appearance along with all the other living Yankee legends, which was nice and all, but I'd like to talk about the terrible performance by Dan Uggla.
The Marlins second baseman couldn't have had a more un-All-Star-like performance. One critical GIDP and count em, THREE errors, not to mention going 0-for-4 at the plate. Teammate Hanley Ramirez committed the 4th NL gaffe. Gee, thanks Florida.
This marathon probably should have finished in the 10th when Uggla committed two errors that helped load the bases for the American League who failed to capitalize. Two innings later, Uggla could have made up for all his missteps but instead struck out with the bases loaded.
Even the Associated Press ripped him.
In the end it was Michael Young hitting a sac fly to right field, driving in Justin Morneau whose lightning speed barely beat out Corey Hart's ground ball throw to the plate. Appropriately, the game finished in Uggly fashion. Alright, let's get on with the second half.
