Cano's drive to right field extended the AL's winning streak in the Midsummer Classic to five straight years. But this time, the game didn't have home-field advantage in the World Series on the line.
The first All-Star Game at colorful Marlins Park had its moments of drama and levity. Twice it involved Yadier Molina, the Cardinals' perennial All-Star catcher, who came off the bench and had his snapshot moments. They both occurred in the sixth inning.
In the top of the inning, Nelson Cruz came to bat with two outs, and provided a first -- asking Molina, who was in his catching crouched position, to take a photo.
