The 1990 Major League Baseball All-Star Game was the 61st playing of the midsummer classic between the all-stars of the American League (AL) and National League (NL), the two leagues comprising Major League Baseball. The game was held on July 10, 1990, at Wrigley Field in Chicago, the home of the Chicago Cubs of the National League. The game resulted in the American League defeating the National League 2–0. The game is remembered for a rain delay in the 7th inning that resulted in CBS airing Rescue 911 during the delay. This is also the first game (and, so far, the only one) to feature two players bearing the same name: Gregg Olson was a pitcher, representing the AL squad and Baltimore Orioles, while catcher Greg Olson represented the NL squad and Atlanta Braves. Outfielder Jose Canseco of the Oakland Athletics and Second Baseman Ryne Sandberg of the Chicago Cubs were the leaders of their leagues in the fan votes.
All the scoring was done by the American League in a single inning. In the top of the seventh inning, Julio Franco hit a double to right field sending Sandy Alomar home from third base and Lance Parrish home from first base. Franco was named the game's MVP.
