Barry Bonds and Ichiro got awards for being the top online vote getters out of everyone in their league. Go-Go Ichiro!
Freddy Garcia pitched a perfect inning and got the win. Jeff Nelson pitched a shutout inning and Kazu Sasaki got the save!
Ichiro got an infield hit in the first inning off ex-Mariner Randy Johnson, and he also stole second base. Mike Cameron ran hard and got a double, and John Olerud reached on a throwing error by Second baseman Jeff Kent -- Johnny O would have been safe anyway I think ;-)
The American League won the game 4-1 beause they rule, and thats all I need to say!
