There doesn't seem to be a "Current Series" widget for the Midsummer Classic. Hmmm.
I guess I'll improvise:
CURRENT SERIES
This is the 81st Major League Baseball All Star Game.
American League: 38 wins
National League: 40 wins
Ties: 2
Current streak: The AL has won the last 12 All Star Games (not including the Shruggity* Game in 2002)
