San Francisco Giants fans voted with enthusiasm for the National League All-Star team, pushing Pablo Sandoval and Melky Cabrera into surprise All-Star starts.
Looks like they knew what they were doing.
Sandoval had a bases-loaded triple in the first inning and MVP Cabrera hit the game's only homer as the National League pushed their winning streak in the All-Star Game to three in a row with an 8-0 victory, the first All-Star Game shutout since 1996.
And Matt Cain was the winning pitcher, capping an evening that was a San Francisco treat for the NL.
It also made Tony La Russa a winner in his final game. The retired Cardinals skipper is 4-2 as an All-Star Game manager.
