Go back in time for the latest edition of Distant Replay! And this one's a gem. The 1983 All-Star Game at old Comiskey Park. It was the 50th Anniversary of the very first All-Star Game held at Comiskey Park in 1933. As a rookie, Ron Kittle was the White Sox only All-Star. Kittle joins the podcast to talk about his memories of this historic game and playing in front of the hometown fans (13:00). After losing 11 straight All-Star Games, the American League crushed the National League 13-3, thanks to a grand slam by Fred Lynn (34:00), the first and only grand slam in All-Star history. A young Chuck Garfien was there in person with his grandfather. Chris Kamka is aboard to talk about the game and the broadcasting magic of Vin Scully who called the game for NBC.
