SAN DIEGO - The evening kicked off with a touching tribute to Tony Gwynn, the greatest of all Padres, and later featured an emotional farewell to David Ortiz, who plans to retire at season’s end.
In between, Johnny Cueto served up home run pitches to a couple of former teammates, making long-time Giants fans reminisce of rough All-Star Games of yesteryear.
On a gorgeous night at Petco Park, the American League beat the National League 4-2. For those scoring at home, the Giants, should they reach the World Series, wouldn’t own home-field advantage.
