What happens when the wind is blowing out at an All-Star Game? Exactly what happened at Detroit's Tiger Stadium. Six Future Hall of Famers - Johnny Bench, Hank Aaron, Reggie Jackson, Frank Robinson, Harmon Killebrew and Roberto Clemente - homer in the game to account for every run scored by both teams. Jackson's blasts, however, is especially memorable. With one on in the bottom of the third, the A's slugger rips a Dock Ellis pitch into a light tower on the roof of Tigers Stadium - 520 feet from home plate! http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/mlb/history/mlb_asgrecaps_story_headline.jsp?story_page=recap_1971 Sep 17 04, 2:40 AM

You've done a great job of digging out the answers, MrsA. Another item I would have included as a second unique thing is that the six homers tied the record for All Star games. Good job! Sep 17 04, 2:10 PM
