An interesting read re the All-Star Game
Last Friday, the Washington Post published a separate section pertaining to the AS Game. I didn't finish reading this section until tonite. One of the major pieces in it covers all of the still-living players who have represented Washington in AS Games. The first, the longest, and the most interesting write up is about Eddie Robinson, who at age 97 is the oldest-living Washington AS, the oldest-living ex-Yankee, and the last-surviving member of the 1948 Cleveland Indians WS champs. The other player write ups may or may not interest you. Here's the link:
