Imagine an All Star team with Aaron, Mays and Clemente across the outfield? It probably was a regular occurrence. I don't particularly remember those games except for the fact that the AL regularly got their clock cleaned. I think they lost something like 19 of 20 in one stretch.
I remember one AS game where Seaver started and struck out 7 of the 9 batters he faced--AL All Stars, no less, some of the best sluggers of all time. If he could have pitched the whole game I'd bet on a perfecto that day--he was untouchable. I doubt he threw 30 pitches in his three innings.
