The National League won the first ever swing off in the MLB All-Star Game over the American League, thanks to Kyle Schwarber's three clutch home runs

A TLANTA -- Clutching the glass bat given to the All-Star Game MVP, Kyle Schwarber walked through the National League clubhouse and chuckled to himself: He had just won the award without registering a single hit in the game. "One good BP wins you a trophy these days," Schwarber said.

Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, tabbed as the American League’s starting pitcher, allowed two runs in a tough-luck first inning. National League leadoff man Shohei Ohtani fell behind 0-2 before slapping a single to center. Ronald Acuña Jr. also battled to two strikes before beating out a dribbler to second for an infield hit.
