1957 MLB All-Star Game Highlights: Musial & Bunning Feature
The page details the 1957 MLB All-Star Game, where the American League mounted a late rally to win 6-5 against the National League in front of 30,693 spectators in St. Louis. The AL initially led with Vic Wertz's single in the second inning. Lew Burdette’s walk in the second inning and Yogi Berra's sixth-inning run expanded their lead. The National League countered with efforts by Willie Mays and Ed Bailey, leading to a brief scare for the AL, but Billy Pierce managed to halt their advances. In the ninth, Al Kaline's contributions, coupled with Minnie Minoso's double, put the AL ahead 6-2. Despite a late surge by the National League, with contributions from Stan Musial and Hank Foiles, and Jim Bunning walking Stan Musial, Ernie Banks, and Gus Bell, the AL preserved their lead with Bob Grim's relief pitching.
