A TLANTA -- Clutching the glass bat given to the All-Star Game MVP, Kyle Schwarber walked through the National League clubhouse and chuckled to himself: He had just won the award without registering a single hit in the game. "One good BP wins you a trophy these days," Schwarber said.

The National League won the first ever swing off in the MLB All-Star Game over the American League, thanks to Kyle Schwarber's three clutch home runs

But the Senior Circuit clinched the win in thrilling fashion and has now won two of the last three All-Star Games after the AL won nine in a row from 2013 through 2022. Schwarber went 0-for-2 with a walk during the actual game but still took home the MVP award because of his clutch performance in the Home Run Derby.
