The game was held on July 11, 1989 at Anaheim Stadium in Anaheim, California , the home of the California Angels of the American League. The game is noted for being the first in All-Star Game history to include the designated hitter . The game resulted in the American League defeating the National League 5-3. The game is remembered for Bo Jackson 's monstrous lead-off home run to center field. Jackson was named the game's MVP. The game also featured former U.S. President and former baseball announcer Ronald Reagan sharing the NBC broadcast booth with Vin Scully for the first inning.The pregame ceremonies featured Disney characters joining this year's players in sprinting onto the field for the introduction of the starting lineups. Mike Schmidt of the Philadelphia Phillies , who had retired on May 29th, was still elected by the fans as the starting third baseman for the NL All-Star team. Schmidt decided not to play, but he did participate in the game's opening ceremony in uniform. Doc Severinsen later led The Tonight Show Band in the playing of the Canadian and U.S. national anthems. Severinsen and The Tonight Show Band 's performance of the U.S. National Anthem was the last non-vocal performance of the Anthem at the All-Star Game to date. The ceremonial first pitch was thrown by longtime Angels coach Jimmie Reese .This was the second All-Star Game to be played in Anaheim, which last hosted the Midsummer Classic in 1967 . It would return to the by-now renovated and renamed Angel Stadium of Anaheim in 2010 .RostersPlayers in italics have since been inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame .National League Starters Position Player Team All-Star Games P Rick Reuschel Giants 3 C Benito Santiago Padres 3 1B Will Clark Giants 7 2B Ryne Sandberg Cubs 6 3B Howard Johnson Mets 1 SS Ozzie Smith Cardinals 9 OF Eric Davis Reds 2 OF Tony Gwynn Padres 5 OF Kevin Mitchell Giants 1 DH Pedro Guerrero Cardinals 5 Pitchers Position Player Team All-Star Games P Tim Burke Expos 1 P Mark Davis Padres 2 P John Franco Reds 3 P Orel Hershiser Dodgers 3 P Jay Howell Dodgers 3 P Mike Scott [1] Astros 3 P John Smoltz Braves 1 P Rick Sutcliffe Cubs 3 P Mitch Williams Cubs 1 Reserves Position Player Team All-Star Games C Tony Peña Cardinals 5 C Mike Scioscia Dodgers 1 1B Glenn Davis Astros 2 2B Willie Randolph Dodgers 6 3B Bobby Bonilla Pirates 2 3B Mike Schmidt [1] Phillies 12 3B Tim Wallach Expos 4 SS Barry Larkin Reds 2 OF Vince Coleman Cardinals 2 OF Andre Dawson Cubs 7 OF Von Hayes Phillies 1 OF Darryl Strawberry [1] Mets 6 American League Starters Position Player Team All-Star Games P Dave Stewart Athletics 1 C Terry Steinbach Athletics 2 1B Mark McGwire Athletics 3 2B Julio Franco Rangers 1 3B Wade Boggs Red Sox 5 SS Cal Ripken, Jr. Orioles 7 OF Bo Jackson Royals 1 OF Kirby Puckett Twins 4 OF Rubén Sierra Rangers 1 DH Harold Baines White Sox 4 Pitchers Position Player Team All-Star Games P Chuck Finley Angels 1 P Mark Gubicza Royals 2 P Mike Henneman Tigers 1 P Doug Jones Indians 2 P Mike Moore Athletics 1 P Dan Plesac Brewers 3 P Jeff Russell Rangers 2 P Nolan Ryan Rangers 8 P Greg Swindell Indians 1 Reserves Position Player Team All-Star Games C Mickey Tettleton Orioles 1 1B Don Mattingly Yankees 7 2B Steve Sax Yankees 4 3B Gary Gaetti Twins 2 3B Kelly Gruber Blue Jays 1 SS Tony Fernández Blue Jays 3 OF José Canseco [1] Athletics 3 OF Mike Greenwell Red Sox 2 OF Devon White A... read more
