Why You Should Root for a Tie
Normally, the MLB All-Star Game offers very little reason to have a rooting interest. Fans will generally root for players on their favorite team and for the biggest stars to make memorable plays.
But you should root for a tie after nine innings, because the MLB has an interesting plan in place. Per Anthony Castrovince of MLB.com, the game will be decided by a Home Run Derby if extra innings are needed.
That seems like the best possible outcome for baseball fans.
It's officially official: Should the All-Star Game be tied after nine innings, the game will be settled via a Home Run Derby. Each manager will select three batters to participate, and each batter will get three swings. The team with the highest total after the three rounds wins.
