Corbin Burnes has whirlwind All-Star experience after checking in on newborn twins
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Corbin Burnes planned to break away from his newborn twin daughters and show up at the All-Star Game regardless of whether he was the starting pitcher for the American League. In a Midsummer Classic filled with replacements and first-time All-Stars, the Baltimore right-hander was the last to arrive. Burnes, an All-Star for the fourth consecutive year, flew to Texas the morning of the game after spending about 36 hours at home in Arizona. “I tried to maximize as much time at home with them as I can,” Burnes said. “Be a dad for a little bit. Change some diapers. Give the girls a bottle. Some of the things that you don’t realize you miss when you’re away from it.” The trip was worth it, despite a bit of a two-out jam that Burnes escaped by getting William Contreras to ground out with runners at second and third. Bryce Harper had doubled behind a walk to Shohei Ohtani.
