At Detroit's Briggs Stadium, Pirates SS Arky Vaughan becomes the first player to hit two home runs in an All-Star Game, cracking a pair of two-run homers. However, Vaughn's blasts are overshadowed by a Game Winning home run by Boston Red Sox star Ted Williams. The Pirates would not fair much better finishing in 4th Place with an 81-73 record.
