The NC and AC All Star teams faced off Sunday night, August 7th, in the 2016 All Star game at Safeco Field. Pitchers dominated early, as neither team could notch a hit until the fourth inning, when the AC pushed across a run off Dallas Keuchel with a walk and two singles. The National Conference immediately came back with a 5-run fifth inning off Max Scherzer, sparked by a 2-run home run by Robinson Cano and capped by a 3-run triple by Mike Trout. An RBI single by Jose Altuve in the sixth made it 5-2, but then the NC put the game away with a 3-run seventh off Matt Harvey, loading the bases with three singles and then pushing the runs across on a sacrifice fly by Kris Bryant, an RBI groundout by Lorenzo Cain, and an RBI single by Chris Carter. The NC won by a final score of 8-2. Robinson Cano was named game MVP. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E ------------------------------------------- NCA 0 0 0 0 5 0 3 0 0 8 9 0 ACA 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 2 9 0 ------------------------------------------- BATTERS NCA AB R H BI 2B 3B HR SB CS BB K PL PR 1 3b NCA STL Carpenter 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 ph-3b NCA TOR Donaldson 1 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 3 2 cf NCA LAA Trout 4 1 2 3 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 4 3 dh NCA BOS Ortiz 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 2 3 ph-dh NCA CHN Bryant 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 4 rf NCA SEA Stanton 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 1 2 4 ph-rf NCA KC Cain 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 5 1b NCA BAL Davis 3 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 2 5 ph-1b NCA HOU Carter 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 6 ss NCA HOU Correa 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 1 1 6 ph-ss NCA CLE Lindor 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 2 7 2b NCA SEA Cano 3 1 2 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 3 7 ph-2b NCA BAL Schoop 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 8 lf NCA CLE Brantley 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 2 8 ph-lf NCA DET MartinezJ. 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 9 c NCA PIT Cervelli 2 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 9 ph-c NCA SF Posey 2 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 TOTALS for NCA 34 8 9 8 0 1 1 0 0 5 12 9 30 PITCHERS NCA IP H R ER BB K HR BF - NCA NYN deGrom 2.0 0 0 0 1 3 0 7 - NCA OAK Gray 1.0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 W NCA HOU Keuchel 1.0 2 1 1 1 1 0 6 - NCA STL Garcia 1.0 1 0 0 0 1 0 4 - NCA SEA Hernandez 0.2 1 1 1 0 1 0 4 - NCA PIT Melancon 0.1 1 0 0 0 0 0 2 - NCA CIN Chapman 1.0 0 0 0 0 2 0 3 - NCA NYA Miller 0.2 1 0 0 0 2 0 3 - NCA KC Davis 0.1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 - NCA ATL Miller 0.1 1 0 0 0 0 0 2 - NCA LAN Jansen 0.2 2 0 0 0 2 0 4 TOTALS for NCA 9.0 9 2 2 2 13 0 39 LOB: 4 E: none.
