1934: A Real Fan Fest
National League starter Carl Hubbell shows that pitching can steal the show when he strikes out Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmie Foxx, Al Simmons and Joe Cronin in order in the first two innings. The NL is unable to hold the lead once Hubbell leaves the game, however, and eventually loses the game, 9-7.
