A Twin-credible rally: Dozier's HR gives Twins final word
MINNEAPOLIS -- Brian Dozier insisted after the Twins' stirring 8-6 win over the Tigers on Friday that he hasn't been trying to make any statements about being left off the American League roster for the 2015 All-Star Game. But on Monday, when he found out he wasn't selected to the squad and was instead an Esurance MLB All-Star Game Final Vote candidate, he crushed a walk-off two-run homer to lead the Twins to a 4-2 victory over the Orioles. And on Friday, when it was announced that he'd finished second in the Final Vote to Kansas City's Mike Moustakas, he crushed a walk-off three-run blast to lead Minnesota to an epic win over Detroit at Target Field.

Dee dislocates thumb, will miss All-Star Game X-rays negative; Marlins believe second baseman avoided ligament damage
MIAMI -- Marlins second baseman Dee Gordon, voted in by the fans as a National League All-Star starter, dislocated his left thumb sliding headfirst into first base in the seventh inning of Saturday's 14-3 win at Marlins Park. The team announced the diagnosis in a somber clubhouse. As disappointing as it is that Gordon will miss Tuesday's Midsummer Classic, the Marlins remain hopeful the injury is not too serious. An X-ray came back negative, and the team believes there is no ligament damage. "There definitely is some relief that it's not as bad as it could have been," Gordon said. "I knew as soon as I hit it that it wasn't right."

Pirates stun Cards with another extras walk-off
PITTSBURGH -- Major League Baseball's hottest rivalry kept its boiling point Sunday night, when Gregory Polanco's bases-loaded single with two outs in the 10th capped a three-run rally and gave the Pirates a 6-5 win over the Cardinals. Randal Grichuk's two-run double in the top of the 10th had given the Cards a 5-3 lead. Singles by Starling Marte and Francisco Cervelli off Trevor Rosenthal knotted the score to set the stage for Polanco. "To get three off an All-Star closer ..." Pirates manager Clint Hurdle marveled about his never-say-die crew. "For our guys to even show up after spotting them two -- incredible things happen when you get a group of men together with one common goal."
------------ Greinke chosen to start All-Star Game for NL League leader in ERA selected by Bochy, will oppose Astros' Keuchel
CINCINNATI -- Zack Greinke, the National League's starting pitcher, throws a pitch that Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo calls "a changeup/split-finger/fastball." Rizzo faced the Dodgers' co-ace on June 23, while Greinke was in the beginning stages of a scoreless streak that sits at 35 2/3 innings -- and he came away perplexed. "It's a pitch that you just don't see," Rizzo said, "and he throws it for a strike down and away, and you're like, 'Is that a fastball? Is that a changeup?' You don't know what it is. He dots, he paints the corners, and he does it really well."

The Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati, Ohio will be the scene of Tuesday night’s 86th Major League Baseball All-Star Game. The stakes are high, as the winner of this year’s Midsummer Classic will receive home field advantage in the World Series.

Tonight sees the 86th MLB All-Star game, where the National League plays the American League. If anybody is looking to have a bet in this game, i like the look of over 7.5 runs at the price of even money

With two MVPs, Trout already an ASG legend Angels slugger first to win the award in consecutive years
CINCINNATI -- Someday Major League Baseball will invite Mike Trout back to its midsummer showcase, sew some patch upon his sportcoat, have him wave to the adoring masses, maybe ask him to throw out a ceremonial first pitch. And those of us lucky enough to say "we knew him when" will recall nights like Tuesday, when he was 23, when he was brilliant, when the possibilities were as endless as the accolades.

ESPYs honor Jeter for greatness
During his 20-year career with the Yankees, Derek Jeter was a 14-time All-Star, five-time World Series champion, Rookie of the Year and World Series MVP. On Wednesday night, Jeter picked up another trophy, with a title that often precedes his name. Jeter accepted the "Icon Award" during the 2015 ESPYs Awards show. "I've had a special relationship with the fans and my teammates over the last 20 years, but in retirement I've come to realize that being a part of the larger community of sports is a gift -- and more importantly it's an honor," Jeter said. "You've inspired me for years, and you continue to inspire me."
