Choo Shin-soo of the Texas Rangers made an impact in his MLB All-Star Game debut on Tuesday.

He went 1-for-2 with a run and contributed to the American League's 8-6 win over the National League at Nationals Park in Washington. It was the AL's sixth straight All-Star Game win, taking its record against the NL to 44 wins, 2 draws and 43 losses.

Choo is only the third Korean to be named to an All-Star team, following pitchers Park Chan-ho of the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2001 and Kim Byung-hyun of the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2002.
