Elected
to a five-year term as baseball's
seventh Commissioner of Major League
Baseball on September 8, 1988, A.
Bartlett Giamatti served as
Commissioner for only five months
before dying suddenly of a heart
attack. Giamatti served as the National
League President from 1986 to
1989.
The official All-Star Game baseballs produced in 1989 were stamped with
red
ink. Like the regular season baseballs
the sweet spot reads "OFFICIAL BALL" at
the top, with a star on each side, but
the next line below reads
"1989 ALL-STAR GAME" all in
uppercase lettering. The third line
features the stamped signature of the Commissioner
of Baseball "A. Bartlett Giamatti COMMISSIONER."
The top panel is stamped with the
Rawlings® script logo. The bottom panel
features the commemorative "1989
All-Star Game" logo.
Each year since 1979 the color of the ink used alternates
from red to blue. This red ink 1989
baseball features the commemorative
"1989 All-Star Game" logo with a baseball diamond
behind it, and the MLB logo below
"California Angels" the team that
hosted the game.
From 1990 to 1992 Commissioner Fay
Vincent Official All-Star Game
baseballs are produced.
