2021 MLB All-Star Game Highlights: Dodgers’ Justin Turner Gets Hit, Chris Taylor Shines

The 2021 MLB All-Star Game saw the American League prevail for an eighth consecutive time as they came away with a 5-2 win over the National League at Coors Field.

The AL team took a lead in the second inning when Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Marcus Semien hit an RBI infield single. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. added to that with a mammoth solo home run off Burnes with two outs in the third inning.

Guerrero drove in another run with an RBI groundout in the fifth inning, extending the lead for the AL to 3-0.

The Los Angeles Dodgers had five All-Stars this year but only three appeared in the game. Mookie Betts bypassed participating in favor of rest and Walker Buehler did not appear out of the bullpen. Buehler is scheduled to start for the Dodgers on Saturday.

Max Muncy was in the NL lineup as the designated hitter, but went 0-for-2 prior to being pinch-hit for by Justin Turner in the bottom of the sixth inning.

Turner grounded out in his first at-bat but singled in the bottom of the eighth. The hit was Turner’s first in three career All-Star Game at-bats.

Chris Taylor appeared in the sixth inning as a defensive replacement in center field and finished the game. He was 0-for-2 with a strikeout, though did make multiple catches on the run in center field.

All-Star Game MVP

Guerrero led all players with two RBI and was named All-Star Game MVP. At age 22 years and 119 days old, Guerrero became the youngest MVP of the All-Star Game since the award was first given out in 1962.

Ken Griffey Jr. previously held the record when he was 22 years and 236 days old at the time of winning MVP of the 1992 All-Star Game.
