1991 NL Standings at the All Star break

July 8, 1991

  The 1991 season has reached the All Star break. Pittsburgh and Atlanta hold 1st place in their respective divisions. The Pirates are probably wishing there wasn't a break right now. They've been on an 11 game winning streak and now hold an 8 game lead over 2nd place St. Louis in the NL East. Atlanta has a 3.5 game lead over LA in the West.
