For twenty years, from 1954 until his retirement in 1973, Willie Mays was named to the All-Star team each season. However, in the four years from 1959 to 1962, two All-Star games were played each season; as a result, Willie Mays played in a total of 24 All-Star games, a record he shares with Hank Aaron and Stan Musial. He was in the starting line-up for 18 of those games, always playing center field.

Was Willie Mays in the hall of fame?

He was on the winning side many times. But in 1968 at the Houston Astrodome, Willie Mays pretty much won the All-Star Game for the National League all by himself. Mays led off the game in the first inning and singled off pitcher Luis Tiant. An errant pickoff throw by Tiant allowed Mays to reach second. Then a wild pitch sent Mays to third. He scored when Willie McCovey grounded into a double play. That was the only run of the game. The National League won 1-0 and Mays was named the game's Most Valuable Player.
