With the All-Stars gathered in Anaheim, the sport of baseball loses a titan as George Steinbrenner, owner of the New York Yankees, dies at the age of 80. A short memorial is held before the mid-summer classic as all the players gather in a moment of silence. The National League would win the All-Star Game 3-1. It is their first win since 1996 as Atlanta Braves catcher Brian McCann wins MVP honors with a three-run double in the seventh inning.
