Cueto Allows Two HRs as A.L. Tops N.L in All-Star Game

Johnny Cueto pitched a complete game two-hitter in Game 2 of the World Series last year to help the Royals claim their crown over the Mets. But in the 87th MLB All-Star Game on Tuesday night, won by the American League 4-2, the Royals didn't give Cueto any breaks.In his first season with the Giants, Cueto got the call to start on the bump in the Midsummer Classic at San Diego's Petco Park. Cueto cruised through the first inning, allowing only a Mike Trout single. The second inning was a much different story. Image Released of Disneyland "Star Wars" Land Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts started off the bottom of the second inning with a groundout to Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant before Cueto faced his old Royals teammate Eric Hosmer. With the bases stranded, Cueto threw a fastball that found the middle of the plate and the fat of Hosmer's bat. The Royals first baseman launched a 389-foot solo shot off Cueto to tie the game up at a one run apiece.Cueto apparently woke up the morning of the All-Star Game feeling ill and fought it off to start the game for the NL.
