All the GIFs you need to see from the 2014 All-Star Game

The 2014 All-Star Game was as entertaining as advertised. We bid farewell to Derek Jeter (and Michael Jeter), saw Mike Trout take home his first ASG MVP award, watched Miguel Cabrera showcase his power and witnessed the home team's Glen Perkins finish off the National League for a 5-3 AL victory.

It's the future so there's no need to worry if you missed Tuesday's Midsummer Classic ... we've got all of the highlights you can handle in the form of fancy moving pictures.

TO THE GIF-CAP!

We were all of two pitches into the All-Star Game when the universe as we know it nearly folded in on itself. Pirates center fielder Andrew McCutchen led off the top of the first with a hard ground ball just within the reach of 14-time All-Star Derek Jeter. Jeets made the diving stop, but couldn't catch Cutch at first ... which is the only reason that Twitter didn't crash.

Jeter was doing his chores on offense, too. The Captain led off the bottom of the first with a double to right field.

Mike Trout tripled and Miguel Cabrera homered, giving the AL an early 3-0 lead - just as MLB Network had predicted a couple hours earlier.

The folks out in left had a little bit of trouble reeling in the souvenir ...

A few innings later, Yu Darvish dazzled the crowd with one of his mesmerizing eephus pitches. Troy Tulowitzki was less than impressed.

In the bottom of the third, Jeter added a single for good measure. The Yankees' captain would leave the game before the fourth inning began, officially ending his 14th All-Star Game 2-for-2 with a double and a run scored.

In the top of the fifth, Ramirez tried to tag Tulo out at second, but the NL's starting shortstop just swam over it.

After RBI doubles from Chase Utley, Jonathan Lucroy and Jonathan Lucroy again (he had two) knotted the game up 3-3, Trout offered an RBI double of his own, driving in Derek Norris for the eventual winning run.

To wrap it all up, AL skipper John Farrell called upon Twins closer (and Minnesota native) Glen Perkins, who closed things out with a perfect 9th as the AL All-Stars won 5-3.
