1970 All-Star Game Artwork: Coaster
By Vintage Brand™ not affiliated with or sponsored by Cincinnati Reds The 1970 Major League Baseball All-Star Game was the 41st midseason exhibition between the all-stars of the American League and the National League. The game was played on the evening of July 14, 1970, at Riverfront Stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio, home of the Cincinnati Reds of the National League, and resulted in a 5–4 victory for the NL. This was the first MLB All-Star Game ever played at night, coinciding with prime time in the Eastern United States. Every All-Star Game since 1970 has been played at night. Riverfront Stadium had barely been open two weeks when it hosted its first All-Star Game. The game was hosted by the Cincinnati Reds twice before (1938 and 1953) when their home park was Crosley Field. Undeniably, the most remembered moment of the game was the final run, scored in the bottom of the twelfth by Pete Rose. The ball was relayed to the American League catcher, Ray Fosse, in time to tag Rose out, but the tenacious Rose bowled Fosse over. Both players were injured, Fosse enough to drop the ball, giving Rose credit for the game-winning run.
