All Star game
I go back to when it was played as a DAY GAME and, yes, it was a highlight of the season.
My takes on why it's diminished now (and none of these require one to be a rocket scientist):
1. Interleague play.
2. Players being traded interleague the norm.
3. Players "opting out" of playing in the game (for whatever reason).
4. Surge in popularity of other pro and college sports.
