Bo Knows All Stars

Kansas City Royals Outfielder Bo Jackson led off the 1989 MLB All Star Game with a home run off Giants pitcher Rick Reuschell. Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda said it sounded like a "golf ball".  Bo gave the fans a highlight reel showing off his power and speed and was named the games MVP.

Bo Jackson only played in one all star game in his short career due to injuries.
