It didn't take long for the 2025 National League All-Stars to heat up in Atlanta. 

Arizona Diamondbacks' second baseman Ketel Marte hit a double in the first inning which scored hometown star Ronald Acuna Jr. and two-way star Shohei Ohtani. The National League added to its lead courtesy of Mets infielder Pete Alonso's three-run homer in the sixth, which brought the score to 6-0.

The American League finally cut into the deficit the next inning when Athletics outfielder Brent Rooker answered with a three-run homer. Later in the same inning, Bobby Witt Jr. grounded into a fielder's choice to get the AL's fourth run on the board.

Witt Jr. also doubled in the top of the ninth to bring the AL within one run. Cleveland's Steven Kwan then reached on an infield single to bring the game to a 6-6 tie. 

The tied score after nine innings meant the winner would be determined by a swing-off. 

Tuesday night marked the first time in history the Midsummer classic winner. Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber was named the All-Star game MVP after his points in the home run derby-style tiebreaker helped lift the NL to victory.

The much-talked-about All-Star game debut for the Automated Ball-Strike System was put to the test early. Reigning home run derby champion, Cal Raleigh, signaled for an appeal of the robot umpire in the first inning.  Raleigh's appeal was successful as he gained a strikeout for his fellow NL All-Star Tarik Skubal.

"You take 'em any way you can get ’em, boys," Skubal said on the mound.

Athletics rookie Jacob Wilson also was successful as the first batter to call for a challenge, reversing a 1-0 fastball from Washington's MacKenzie Gore in the fifth inning that had been called a strike.

The computer umpire was tested in spring training this year and was adopted at the minor league level for the regular season a couple of years ago.

All MLB players' break will continue on Wednesday and Thursday before completion resumes across the league on Friday.

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark needed to be held back during a heated confrontation with WNBA official Mike Price during the team’s game Tuesday night against the Connecticut Sun.

The incident occurred with 4:33 left in the third quarter as officials went to look at whether the Sun or Fever had knocked the ball out of bounds following a missed shot. Clark was seen jawing at Price as she was going back to the bench.

"Are you f----ing kidding me?" she appeared to say as Fever assistant Briann January dragged her back to the bench.

As officials continued to look at the replay, the ESPN broadcast showed Clark yelling over toward the officials again.

"That’s just rude. Grow up," she said. "Come here, come here. Unbelievable."

Price seemed undeterred by Clark’s comments. The Fever superstar somehow managed to avoid receiving a technical foul.

Clark’s struggles from the floor have been noted as she continued to work her way back from a groin injury. She came into the contest 1-for-28 from 3-point range on the road and wrapped the team’s win over the Sun 1-for-7 from 3-point range and 4-for-14 overall.

She finished 14 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.

Clark came alive in the fourth quarter, scoring nine straight points for Indiana. But she left the floor in tears with under 2 minutes to play as she appeared to tweak her groin again.

She came up lame after a bounce pass to Kelsey Mitchell.

Indiana won the game 85-77 but with the All-Star Game looming, Clark’s health became a question once again.

Kelsey Mitchell led Indiana with 20 points.

Sun veteran Tina Charles had 21 points and 11 rebounds in the loss.
