They played two all-star games for only four years, from 1959-1962.

The second game was added to assist in raising funds for players' pensions.

1959-62. This is how Musial, Mays, and Aaron got to play in a record 24 ASGs each -- four bonus games during their careers.

Having two games wasn't popular and was dropped with little protest.
