This Week in Sports Trivia: July 17, 2025
Major League Baseball might be onto something here. Twenty-three years after then-commissioner Bud Selig famously shrugged when officials asked him how they should end an All-Star Game still tied after 11 innings — he chose to call it — the league had a new option. No extra innings. No ghost runners. No tie. Instead, the American League and National League squared off in a home run derby-style swing-off to decide the winner. Each side had three sluggers, and each slugger got three swings. Talk about drama. Advertisement We won't reveal the details here. That would spoil one of our quiz questions, and we want to make sure you've been paying attention. But rest assured, it was fun. So good luck, and if you have a moment, you should play our daily Connections: Sports Edition, too!
