1962 All-Star Game Play by Play
Retrosheet is a not-for-profit organization that was founded in 1989 for the purpose of computerizing play-by-play accounts of as many pre-1984 major league games as possible. Their research is without parallel, beyond exceptional, and in a league by itself. Baseball Almanac is pleased to present this play-by-play account of the 1962 All-Star Game courtesy of Retrosheet.

"Once again, almost all teams were scheduled to play the day before and the day after the interleague clash, some with doubleheaders. As a result, many of the star players spent two consecutive evenings making late flights." - The Midsummer Classic (2002)
