The 1980 MLB All-Star Game was played on July 8 at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles California home of the L.A. Dodgers of the National League. The game resulted in a 4-2 victory for the N.L. squad as Cincinnati's Ken Griffey opened up the scoring with a solo blast in the fifth inning to get the ball rolling. At game's end Griffey who went 2-for-3 on the night was named the game's MVP.

This lot features the 1980 MLB All-Star Game that was awarded to former longtime Dodgers skipper Walter Alston. The size 11 ½ ring features a five-pointed star design set atop a dark black stone surrounded by "BASEBALL ALL STAR." "ALSTON" is engraved above the MLB logo and "Major League Baseball" on one shank while "LA 1980" "AMERICAN NATIONAL" and the Dodgers logo appears on the other. The ring weighs 16 grams.

Includes LOA from the Alston Family.
