In a game that involved several long bombs, Willson Contreras made a name for himself. On the very first pitch he faced in his first All-Star appearance, he hit a laser to left field off of Blake Snell to start the scoring for the NL. With that shot, Contreras became the first ever Cubs catcher to homer in an All-Star Game.
Javy Baez also got into the mix, hitting a 99.4 mph Chris Sale offering into center for a single to lead off the game (Box score).
I really, really love how the All-Star Game has changed recently.
