Willie Horton hit three home runs and drove in eight runs to lead the American League to a 24-11 comeback victory over the National League in the Sixth Annual Old-Timers Game at Washington.

The AL Stars trailed, 11-0, but scored all their runs in the final three innings of the five-inning game to even the series at three games apiece.

Rocky Colavito hit two homers for the AL, including a grand slam in the fourth inning that put the AL Stars ahead for good.

CBS will televise the game on July 4.
