MIAMI -- One day after his runner-up finish in the T-Mobile Home Run Derby, Twins third baseman Miguel Sano continued to elevate his national profile, delivering an RBI single in the fifth inning of the American League's 2-1 win in the 2017 All-Star Game presented by Mastercard on Tuesday night at Marlins Park.
Sano, a first-time All-Star who replaced Jose Ramirez at third base in the bottom of the fourth inning, put the AL squad on the board in his lone at-bat of the night. Sano blooped an 0-1 fastball from Dodgers left-hander Alex Wood to right field, knocking in Jonathan Schoop from second and giving the AL a 1-0 lead.
