Willie Mays trivia

Just what I need to brighten up a winter's day. Here's one from my Giants calender -- Who are the three players who have led off All-Star games with homeruns?

The answer -- Lou Boudreau (1942), Willie Mays (1965) and Joe Morgan (1977).

The 1965 game was part of Willie's second MVP year.He took Milt Pappas deep to left field at Metropolitan Stadium in Minneapolis. Later in the first, Joe Torre hit a two-run homer. The NL won 6-5.
