On this day in 1964 the Mets played the first and only All-Star game at Shea Stadium. The National League won the game 7-4 on a comeback win in the ninth capped by a three run homer by Johnny Callison. The Mets' 2B Ron Hunt became the first Mets player to be start an All-Star game. It was very fitting considering the game was played at Shea.
