The Major League Baseball All-Star Game is always a star-studded event, as the best players in the game get together mid-season and play in front of a packed stadium. No matter what city the game is held in, fans come out in droves, showing support for their favorite players.

Each year, it seems something special happens, whether it is an incredible Home Run Derby, or an unbelievable performance by an individual player. There is always one play that marks an All-Star Game, making it go down in history. Some years the moment is just bigger, making it memorable for generations.
