Eddie Kasko, a former MLB infielder who was an All-Star during his 10-year career, died Wednesday. The Boston Red Sox, for whom Kasko played in the final year of his career in 1966, announced his passing. The New York Times wrote at the time that having two All-Star Games meant more money for MLB but by 1962 the second game was dropped in lieu of paying the players more. The New Jersey native managed the Red Sox from 1970-1973 but never won more than 90 games at the helm.
