Card Stock POST-GAME 81/2" X 11" Newspaper Coverage courtesy of the Chicago Defender of what was the last East-West Negro League Baseball All-Star Game played Sunday August 21, 1960. Won by the West Team 8-4, this article features a detailed look at how the East Team jumped out to a commanding 4-0 lead only to give up four unanswered runs in the bottom of the 5th after having tied the game on Art Hamilton's fourth inning blast. Among those who started in this game are: FRANK WILLIAMS - older brother of Baseball Hall-of-Famer and Chicago Cub Billy Williams; East Team Starting pitcher Ernest "Ernie" Westfield of the Birmingham Black Barons and Willie Gilmore of the famed Kansas City Monarchs who eventually got the win.
