2008 All Star Game - Recap
The Midsummer Classic returned to Yankee Stadium in 2008 for the fourth — and final — time. Yankee Stadium, which hosted the All-Star Game in 1939, 1960 and 1977, will be replaced in 2009 and officials chose Yankee Stadium for the site, believing it to be an appropriate way to usher out the historic ballpark.
A historic ballpark deserved a historic game and the 2008 Midsummer
Classic did not disappoint. From start to finish fans witnessed what
will go down in history as one of the greatest All-Star Games in Major
League history.
Pre-game events included a red-carpet parade through
New York City, a player introduction ceremony where startes took the
field at their position flanked by forty-nine living Hall of Fame players
- each lined up at their former position, and a Stealth Bomber fly-over.
The actual game itself was a record-setter as well, lasting four-hours and fifty minutes. Did the House That Ruth Built simply not want to see the legends leave its hollowed grounds? Derek Jeter said following the game, "It seemed like the Stadium didn't want it to end. That's what we were talking about. It just wanted baseball to continute and I thought it was fitting."
MLB.com columnist Bryan Hoch (Night is Young: AL walks off in 15th, 07/16/2008), summed up the game perfectly, "It was a Midsummer Classic — in every sense of the phrase — taking place in a building best known for its immaculate stage. It was the House that Ruth Built, where Lou Gehrig proclaimed himself the luckiest man, where Joe DiMaggio jolted and where Mickey Mantle became an idol to millions. It was where Don Larsen was perfect, where Roger Maris toppled the Babe and where Reggie Jackson forever acquired October with just three swings."
