July 9th, 1934 - The All Star Game (preview)

The All Star Game


1934 marked only the second All Star game.

IRL, 17 of the 18 starters in the 1934 All Star game wound up in the Hall of Fame. Only Wally Berger of the Braves would start, but not achieve HOF status despite having a .300 lifetime batting average. TBT

The 1934 All Star game was played at the Polo Grounds in New York, home field of the New York Giants on July 10, 1934. Fans chose the 20 man rosters, but the managers chose the starters. The AL won 9-7 IRL, but the game is perhaps best remembered for Carl Hubbel's striking out five conseuctive Hall of Famer hitters (Ruth, Gehrig, Foxx, Simmons and Cronin).

Fans "vote" in the Strat-O-Matic game as the season goes on, based on players' productivity. The game generates more All Stars than played in the real 1934 All Star Game (20 per team). I have decided to reconcile this by delineating between "honorary" All Stars (those who earned the designation based on Strat's voting mechanism) and those that were chosen for the roster by managers Bill Terry (NL) and Joe Cronin (AL). Roster choices were based on (a) top vote getters at each position; then (b) 1934 IRL All Stars; (c) my subjective judgment based on potential contribution; and (d) team diversity.

Here are the All Stars chosen in the replay. Those on the game roster are in bold:

Cleveland took care of Chicago with no trouble in the 9th. Hudlin(5-6) picked up the complete game victory, allowing 3 runs. Sam Jones(6-9) was given the loss. He surrendered 6 runs and 7 hits in 8 innings. The Cleveland ballclub's record now stands at 36-36. Jimmy Dykes was pretty down after the loss.
