1962 All Star Game at Wrigley Field
Just found this incredible video on Youtube, and yes, I watched the whole thing. Willie Mays, Roberto Clemente, Orlando Cepeda, Roger Maris, Luis Aparacio. Very cool. And look at the way people dressed at Wrigley. Everyone is wearing a tie. You can hear Pat Pieper announce the players. The field looks the same though, other than centerfield (no batters eye) and foul territory (much bigger). No Cubs in this clip, although Ernie & Billy were on the roster. They played later in the game.
