Shou Okuda Wins MVP in Eastern League Victory over Western League
Despite his best efforts, game MVP Shou Okuda's Western League All-Stars couldn't overcome the powerful Eastern League squad in the annual All-Star Game.

"We tried our best, but did you see the talent in that lineup?" Okuda was quoted as saying after the game. "I'm honored to be named MVP of the game. To stand among the greatest stars of the game and be declared the best among them is truly an honor, even if we didn't end up winning the game. I had fun, and I think the fans did as well."

The Eastern League All-Stars triumphed in the game by a final score of 6-4 in this year's game at Matsunoki Stadium.
