Major League Baseball teams were to hold an All-Star Game of sorts to honor Dr. King after his assassination in 1968, though logistically it didn’t take place until March 28, 1970, with proceeds benefitting the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and the Dr. Martin Luther King Memorial Center.
Bill Francis for the Baseball Hall of Fame recounted the game:
A total of 15 future members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame appeared in the game: Al Kaline, Frank Robinson, Lou Brock, Willie Stargell, Roberto Clemente, Ron Santo, Ernie Banks, Tom Seaver and Bob Gibson from the East; Hank Aaron, Reggie Jackson, Johnny Bench, Orlando Cepeda, Joe Morgan and Willie Mays from the West. ....
