All-Star notes
The National League defeated the American League, 7-6 in the 1922 All-Star game. Pat started the game at second base for the AL, batting third. It was Pat's 13th All-Star appearance, tying him with fellow All-Star Ty Cobb for the most All-Star selections in major league history. Since Ty was not chosen as a starter, however, Pat alone has started thirteen Midsummer Classics.
Pat drove in a run with single to right field against Erv Kantlehner, and later stole second base. He later added a sacrifice fly off Bill Otey. He played the entire game, ending up 1-3.
Other All-Stars from the Red Sox included Babe Ruth (starting RF, cleanup hitter, 1-5 with 2 runs and a solo homer) and George Dauss (selected to the team, but did not pitch).
