• Dave Engle and Tom Brunansky were back-to-back Twins All-Stars and wound up as brothers-in-law, marrying sisters.
• The first year of naming an All-Star MVP was 1962— Leon Wagner of the Angels and Maury Wills of the Dodgers. Why two? This was last of four years when two All-Star Games were played.
