1943 All-Star Game
The 1943 All-Star Game was the 11th of the mid-summer classic between the American League and
National League. The game was held on July 13, 1943 at Shibe Park, Philadelphia, the home of
the Philadelphia Athletics of the American League. The game resulted in the American League defeating
the National League 5-3.
Bobby Doerr's three-run homer in the second inning propelled the American League to a 5-3 victory. Led by Vince DiMaggio's
three hits, the National League out-hit the American League, 10-8, but could only manage single runs in the first,
eventh and ninth innings, as it lost for the eighth time in 11 All-Star Games.
