I was 9 when i watched this game. I remember going to summer school field trip and a classmate of mine telling me the all star game would be on TV that night. When I got home I remember being so excited watching this game. I also got to see my favorite player Don Mattingly in his last season as an all star player since he blew out his back next season. I still remember his pinch hit double like if it was yesterday. Bringing back old childhood memories.
I was 6 when I saw this. As soon as I saw "Bo Jackson says hello," I wanted to be Vin Scully. My parents taped innings 4-9 and I watched it probably 200 times. Made me a baseball fan for life. Thank you for posting.
I remember my Dad came to Memphis from South Dakota. We went out to dinner and i told my Dad we had to get back in time for the All Star Game, because Bo Jackson was leading off. And we made it in time, to see Bo Jackson hit the lead off HOME RUN!!!!
Thanks for posting. I was studying for the California Bar Exam and didn't see this game on TV. The next day, one of my friends told me about how President Reagan was confused as to how Julio Franco pronounced his first name. It's at 58:34.
Mike Schmidt, one of the most iconic and legendary players in the game of baseball! What a hitter! You gotta laugh when even the Home of the American League All-Star team crowd still boos whenever a Yankees player is announced. Although Don Mattingly had some cheers. His insane hitting was probably the reason for that.
All Star games back then were special. Back then you mostly only saw your local team on TV except for Saturday Game of the Week. ESPN may have had Wednesday night baseball by then, but that was about it. Since I lived in Dallas, I rarely got to see National League stars plays. So I couldn’t wait for the All Star Game. Times are much different now.
John Ramsey should have been the PA announcer for this game. A southern California legend. We used to say he had the voice of Zeus. It it was so booming and powerful. The Angels switched PA announcers from games to game (Ramsey announced USC football and other sports). When Ramsey announced, I will never forget when he said before every game (I paraphrase): "Anyone entering the field of play will me prosecuted to the maximum extent of the law!" It was like, "Yes sir, whatever you say!"
1:49 "The Abyss" will go down in history as on of the greatest films in all of history, exactly like Sienfeld will be considered as a most spectacular thing ever seen by human eyes or heard by human ears
Fun Fact: In 1989, All-Star Game starter Harold Baines would be traded from the Chicago White Sox to the Texas Rangers for a rookie outfielder named Sammy Sosa. It would become one of the most unpopular trades in Rangers' franchise history.
Eric was my favorite player at the time. Absolute beast. A complete player. Bo was a phenomenom there was and is only one bo jackson. Freak of nature. I was 10 years old remember this game like was yesterday. Bo dominated this game
It was funny when Ryan got a standing ovation and Russell got the cold shoulder after him... then they started clapping because they knew it was too quiet. 🤣🤣🤣
As was I. In one of those few moments in life that works out perfectly. In 1967 my dad took me to the All Star game at Anaheim Stadium and 22 years later I finally got to return the favor, taking him to the game. One of my fondest memories ever!

This was my second watched All Star game. As a Cardinals fan I wish my Cardinals would've overtaken the Scrubs for the division, beat the Giants again unlike the Scrubs, and would've beat the Atheletics in the '89 WS. Ozzie getting that hit off Stewart to lead off the game was a replica of the Cardinals '89 season. Ozzie lead the game right, would've been at least one extra run if NOT for the mistaken attempted steal of second base. Would've been at least 3-0 maybe more. Bo's great catch would've only been the second out. The game with Cardinals players was played this game similar to their actual season. Not to mention from @37:47 all the way to @1:03:58 was the BEST president we had up in the box with Vin Scully.
Pure Couples yea I bullet dodged. All the force and the might of a Special Counsel and an entire Democrat Party. I look at it this way-he is a billionaire president that gets to sleep with a model every night, and you are....you whining about it on RUclips. This was fun for about 2 seconds but there are far more interesting things to do.
Bo Jackson got 4 strikes on his second at bat. Watch it. 3 straight strikes but ump didnt call him out then he grounded into the force out on the 4th pitch. Ump called first pitch strike but tv called it a ball. Damn this is how bored this rona virus has made me.
Loved seeing Will Clark & Kevin Mitchell. Miss them playing for my San Francisco Giants, but most of all I miss the color commentator- *Ronald Reagan!* That man believed in America and America believed in him.
I'm sorry Mr Reagan but you was wrong about Anaheim stadium being the greatest ballpark in America in your opinion yes it may well be and only to.a few others that may agree with your opinion about Anaheim stadium but everyone knows that the Greatest ballpark in America is Yankee Stadium aka Baseballs Cathedral absolute!!!
It's very heartwarming to see Regan there the BEST President we ever had being another All Star there. Unlike 20 yrs later in my home town of STL 2009 all star game having the white Sox jacket Communist just giving him something he didn't deserve!

Joseph I remember that Too , was mattinglys only all star game hit as well .
I was 7 years old, the first all star game I vividly remember seeing. I will never forget the back to back by Bo and Boggs!
Nice to see this includes all the vintage commercials. Thanks for the upload.
Julio Franco looked so young here, barely in his 50s!
Lol 😂
This comment should have gotten more likes lol

RIP to the play by play king Vin Scully. Hearing Vin was like hearing Walter Cronkite do the news or Johnny Carson on late night.
the legendary bo jackson HR is at the 55:00: min mark went 460ft+
I watched this when I was 15, at that time living in Venezuela.
One word about Doc Seversen and the Canadian Brass' joint performances of both "O Canada" and "The Star-Spangled Banner": priceless.
All these guys still seem older than I and im 46 now
GOOD GAME WATCHED IT ON TV WITH MY DAD
I remember my Dad came to Memphis from South Dakota. We went out to dinner and i told my Dad we had to get back in time for the All Star Game, because Bo Jackson was leading off. And we made it in time, to see Bo Jackson hit the lead off HOME RUN!!!!
Priceless
He may not be in the HOF, but 30+ years on and he is still getting paid!! Bobby Bonilla.⚾️
That’s the first thing I thought of when I seen his announcement and his smiling face.
🤣🤣🤣
he was a piece of vomit
I remember to this day where I was and what I was doing the day of this game. Great times. I miss 80s sports.
I absolutely love this thank you so much for posting it:)
AL lineup is POWER STACKED! Sierra & McGwire batting 7th & 8th respectively, wow!

Ryan pitched better here, 10 years later - and even won - than when he started at the classic '79 Game at the Kingdome. Hall-of-Fame greatness!

2 class gentleman in the booth with Mr. Reagan and Mr. Skully - awesome!

ESPN didn’t start doing games till 1990
NBC Sports had the MLB All-Star Game in 1989, several forms of the Futura font in the graphics.

Back when Angel Stadium could hold 64 thousand fans.
1:49 "The Abyss" will go down in history as on of the greatest films in all of history, exactly like Sienfeld will be considered as a most spectacular thing ever seen by human eyes or heard by human ears
.. 48 now… thanks for everything Nolan…

The 80's when SF Giants pitchers got roughed up in the AS Game. 83 Hammaker giving up the first ever grand slam in an AS Game.
7 ER, then yeah the back-to-back HRs to lead it off
Im 43...eric davis is the best athlete ive ever seen in person...if you had seen him at his peak live youd agree...beast
Bo was the greatest athlete of the 20th century
Davis was the better baseball player, the guy could do it all. Bo was the best athlete.
Eric was my favorite player at the time. Absolute beast. A complete player. Bo was a phenomenom there was and is only one bo jackson. Freak of nature. I was 10 years old remember this game like was yesterday. Bo dominated this game
I am 45. Eric Davis is my all-time favorite player. Me and my wife met him a few years ago in Florence, Kentucky.
Angels Stadium actually looked like a baseball stadium, before they tore down Mt. Davis!!!
-A’s fan
Bob Costas & Marv Albert (Pre-game)
Vin Scully (PBP) & Tom Seaver (C) & Ronald Reagan (1st inning)
Mike Schmidt was always full of Class and Dignity.
Nolan Ryan's curveball was unreal this game.
Ronald Reagan R.I.P
Bo knows Rick Reuschel
55:19 I like how he's checking out the new ball like nothing is going on
Terry steinbach looks like the quiet one in the tag team the rock n roll express
OR Bonds lol ! He does
Bob Costas been at it for a long time
It was the good times ok basket
It was funny when Ryan got a standing ovation and Russell got the cold shoulder after him... then they started clapping because they knew it was too quiet. 🤣🤣🤣
Still to this day, I don’t understand how that Ryan curveball that caused Kevin Mitchell to buckle out of the box was not called a strike. Damn shame.
UMP was FOOLED!
Come back Pete, all is forgiven...
So amazing that Ronald Reagan did colorful analysis during the first inning.
Colorful? Please. The man could barely speak at this point.
ボー ジャクソンが凄いと思った。
Adios..toni.caveza..fernandez...2020 😪⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️

Yes another American League win let's keep a streak going leta wins next year 😊
Vin Skully’s final ASG.
1:03:54 Reagan ironically struggles to find the word "memory." The year before he was still President of the United States.
Yeah it’s clear his cognitive skills were diminished at this point.

So many NL HOFers
Isn't Doug Jones still pitching?
People reacted to Peter Rose's gambling problem like he was a mass murderer. Geezus
Who would've stolen Tony Gwynns glove from the dugout?
My cousin got hit in the eye with a corndog at this game
Did he recover?
Ryan Thompson Thompson ... unfortunately I cannot comment on specifics due to the ongoing litigation with Mickey Tettleton
Good
@@steveoranges1960 ☹️
An bygone era when not everyone was a snowflake about politics.
Jeffrey Negron who brought up politics? Seems like you’re the snowflake
A bygone era when we didn't elect traitorous casino clowns to an office that they're not qualified to speak coherently about, let alone hold.
Neon Rocketship Well you fix that by putting a candidate against him that can beat him. Until then, Happy No Collision Day.

Nice show for Bo Jackson! Unfortunately that jerk, Ronald Reagan was there!
eat shit commie
Ronald Reagan was the man
The guy's dead Dick! Oh, Peter, my bad.
It's very heartwarming to see Regan there the BEST President we ever had being another All Star there. Unlike 20 yrs later in my home town of STL 2009 all star game having the white Sox jacket Communist just giving him something he didn't deserve!
Reagan was the last Conservative before we got four Marxist Presidents.
