Does MLB have the best All Star game?

Convince me that it doesn't? It most closely resembles the actual game IMO. Outside of maybe a guy doesn't make a diving catch, the players actually have to play some semblance of defense. Rather than just stand there and let a ball drop.
The NBA players just stand in the lane and watch a guy dunk. 138 points halfway through the 3rd quarter? Ridiculous.
Pro-bowl is decent but no one wants to take or make a hard hit so they don't really try.

Yes, for some reason baseball players actually care.
NBA or NFL players don't give a frick....
MLB players do...

Least chance of injury or fatigue, so obviously yes.
Edit: Except maybe the pitchers but their pitch counts are usually monitored closely.

football players take a week off between games, back to backs are a big deal for NBA'ers. A day off is a luxury for MLB. GTFO

You play so many games because it is a pussy sport. 
People would die if the NFL played 30+ games.

Yes, they actually play the sport like its supposed to be played, apart from all the substitutions
I've never seen an NHL one but I'd imagine it's up there too

You mean the one where Selig just stopped before it was done. Yeah, it's money

I'm just saying, I know NFL'ers bang into each other every Sunday but then they get a week off before doing it again. Baseball may not have guys taking hits like that but playing most every night for 6 months can wear on you. Because a guy is likely to get knicked up over the course of a season and have to play through it. I'd hardly call it a pussy sport.

You're right, but baseball doesn't require alot of physical contact throughout the game like other sports do.
ETA: Just read your post

Thread isn't really necessary. It's easily the best and the only one of the big three that's even watchable.

Sorry, but the MLB AS game is not half as exciting as this. It doesn't even come close. Nba AS game makes you jump up out of your seat and ooohh n aaahhh. The fans/crowd get into it. Floyd Mayweather is sitting court side talking shite to Kobe and Lebron.
Baseball more resembles a regular game, but it's not the best.

The same could be said of the MLB game if a pitcher hung curve after curve or half assed his fastball right down the middle while the outfielders jogged lightly after a ball. Fans love offense. Thats why the NBA crowd ohhs and ahhs. When I guy runs in for a dunk, the defense parts like a red sea and lets him make his highlight move.

They're all boring and unwatchable.
