It looked like the NL was going to end it's nine game All-star win streak as Trevor Hoffman, one of the most prolific closers of all time, came on for the ninth inning. The game had been a 2-1 pitchers duel up to that poing. With 2 outs the AL pulled out a single and two doubles to take a 3-2 lead and Mariano Rivera held that lead in the bottom of the inning.
