Alex Bregman becoming well-versed in role of humble hero

If you've kept track of former LSU baseball star and Houston Astros starting third baseman Alex Bregman, you already know no moment is too big for him.

So, when first-time All-Star Bregman stepped to the plate with the 89th annual MLB All-Star game tied 5-5 heading into extra innings late Tuesday night (July 17) at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., he did what he usually does.

Win the game.

Bregman smashed a leadoff solo homer to begin a three-run 10th inning rally that sparked the American League to an 8-6 win, earning him the Ted Williams Most Valuable Player Award.
