The All-Star Game is pretty special for a lot of reasons. Not only do fans get to see the game’s best and brightest share the field, but it allows for players to relax and show some personality. We’ve already seen a lot of that with the HR derby and players hanging out together. We’ll get to see Dodgers players doing that tonight.
But this story from Rays’ pitcher Shane McClanahan is pretty awesome. The All-Star lefty is the American League starter for Dusty Baker this year. He will get to take the mound and face off against one of his all-time favorite players: Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw.
