Tom Verducci: NL’s futility makes All-Star Game fascinating
July 15th, 2009 | Sports News
ST. LOUIS -- Be thankful we have the National League All-Star team, in the same way you should be thankful for Lou Costello, Gilligan, Charlie Brown, the Washington Generals and, OK, the Washington Nationals, too. The All-Star Game is way cool again, and not just because World Series home-field advantage is on the line or because the President of the United States showed up to fling the first pitch in a pair of blue jeans and fresh kicks (believed to be a presidential wardrobe first; don't even try to get your mind around William Howard Taft in Levi's). No, the NL's streak of futility is exactly the narrative to keep the game interesting.
