They're running a marathon of sorts. It's like the Baseball Seasons show but this time only All star games. Saw ALL STAR GAMES 84,85,86. What a delight. Too bad they got rid of the Astrodome.

Watching the '87 one with the old-timers; Luis Tiant with his windup, striking out Bench

wow i'm watching the same one right now.

Was going to also mention Fergosi. Man those Sox uniforms during that era were depressing. That swigly C was shit.

How about those great skills games. Not sure why they dont have them anymore. That Catcher skill was great to watch. And that hitting skills game Boggs won I would love to see come back these days.

ANDRE DAWSON BABY! IN THAT VNECK CUBBIE BLUE FUCKING AWESOME!

Oh man this is so great. They're showing the opening into's for both all star teams.

2 Cubs , Ryno and Dawson in 87.


Seeing Rickey Henderson in a Yankees Uni looks really weird now.

Billy Williams there as an honorary wearing Cubs Blue, not A's green.

Got to say the era of baseball just before the steroid era got going was great.

Check your tv guide; they are running the '83-'93 games at different throughout the weekend.

I'm surprised they aren't showing the ones from the 70s; I remember them doing a marathon of those recently

Joe DiMaggio and the Streak documentary on now. Man this channel rocks lately. They've done a great job creating baseball documentary's to keep interest in the sport in the offseason.

I don't know if they are showing the ads, but one of my favorite things of watching the old Wrigley All Star Game was the car commercials -- they are driving these toasters around that can't corner at all, but at the time, it was really good.

I know it's all star games, but watched a couple of the Baseball Seasons shows, those were good too
