MLB All-Star Game Preview
Summary:
Alex Rodriguez calls it as he sees it: right now, the American League (AL) stands head and shoulders above the National League (NL) in Major League Baseball.
Article:
Alex Rodriguez isn't shy about his views on the superiority of the American League over the National League in Major League Baseball. The AL has dominated the past nine All-Star games with an 8-0-1 record, secured back-to-back World Series wins, and claimed 61% of interleague games this season.
The NL did make a statement in the Home Run Derby though, with Phillies’ Ryan Howard taking the crown and Mets’ David Wright finishing as runner-up.
Some turbulence hit the NL on Monday with Ozzie Guillen's decision to remove his undefeated pitcher, Jose Contreras, replacing him with the Minnesota Twins' rising star, Francisco Liriano. Just 22, Liriano has taken the American League by storm, boasting a 10-1 record with only 63 hits in 88 1/3 innings and a remarkable 102 strikeouts against 23 walks. His dominant 1.83 ERA surpasses the next best by over a full run.
NL players have already faced this Dominican phenom during interleague play. Chicago Cubs’ pitcher Carlos Zambrano called him "amazing," while Derrick Turnbow of the Milwaukee Brewers described him as "dominant," and teammate Chris Capuano simply said, "silly."
Besides Liriano, the AL also boasts the league's top hitter, his teammate Joe Mauer, who is hitting .378 at the break.
The All-Star Game is not just about talent but also the contrasting paychecks. On one hand, you have multimillionaires like A-Rod, Jeter, and Ichiro. On the other, emerging talents like Ryan Howard, Freddy Sanchez, and Jon Papelbon represent a different spectrum of earnings.
