1970 All-Star Game - All-Star Collision

July 14, 1970 - Riverfront Stadium, Cincinnati, OH

Although the game is supposed to be an exhibition, Pete Rose only knew how to play one way: full speed. With the game tied 4-4, Rose came barreling home and bowled over catcher Ray Fosse giving the NL the win and Fosse permanent shoulder damage. (Did anyone ever think that Rose may have had a bet on the game and was desperately trying to score? Just a thought……)
