he All-Star game was never celebrated as enthusiastically as it was in 1946. The war had ended the marquee players had returned and America was once again able to enjoy it's national pastime. Most of the players stated that they had never seen a more festive occasion and many of them had not seen their league rivals in several years. The highlight of this game was the match-up of Ted Williams and Rip Sewell the proud possessor of the "ephus" pitch. Sewell served Williams his famous trademark and although he struggled at first he went four-for-four driving in five runs. Bob Feller riding on his twenty-sixth victory three-hundred forty eight strikeout season was the winning pitcher.
