1988 CDBL ALL-STAR GAME AT COUNTY STADIUM HOME OF THE MILWAUKEE MASHERS So far this has been a year for pitching. The league's best hitters would have their work cut out for them. Or would they? In the bottom of the first, with the Traffic's Tim Belcher on the mound, Willie McGee of the Isotopes bangs out a lead-off homer (odd for a guy with only 3 homers this season!) In the top of the 2nd, with the Cats' Jose Guzman on the mound, Howard Johnson singled to put a runner at first. Guzman balked, putting HoJo at 2nd. Darryl Strawberry comes up next, and doubles, scoring Johnson and tying the game up at 1. In the top of the 3rd inning, Andy Van Slyke singled off of Allan Anderson of the Mashers. Eric Davis singles as well, moving Van Slyke to 3rd. Mark McGwire of the Mules hits a towering sacrifice fly, giving the Gehrig-Tiant all-stars the 2-1 lead. In the bottom of the 5th inning, with Andy Hawkins of the Stingers on the mound, Paul Molitor reaches on error (2nd of the day, both committed by Dark Valley all-stars). Ellis Burks of the Mashers singles. Alan Trammell singles to load the bases. Larry Anderson of the Bulldogs is called in to get the GT all-stars out of the inning, but he has to do it against the Isotopes' Barry Bonds. But this is a year for pitching, and Anderson gets the young phenom to ground out, ending the inning, score still tied at 2-1. In the top of the 7th inning, Kirk Gibson and Robby Thompson single, putting runners at first and third with 2 outs. Eric Davis hits a sharp grounder to Will Clark, who can't trap it in time. Gibson scores from third, and GT goes up another run. Pinch hitter Dave Winfield of the Whoop comes on board and hits a 2 out, 2 RBI double. 5-1 GT. Jeff Reardon of the Whoop got the final 2 outs for the GT all-stars,who win the 1988 CDBL all-star game by a score of 5-1. ALL-STAR MVP: He didn't get any hits, but his raw power let the GT all-stars take the lead for good. Mark McGwire of the Mules went 0-2 with a sacrifice fly and the game-winning RBI.
