Here is the condensed game

Pitching wise, the Dbacks have had pitchers throw 14.2 innings in allstar games. Only BK Kim, in 2003 and Corbin in 2013 gave up runs. The most innings ptiched were 5 ip in 4 appearances by Randy Johnson. He gave up 5 hits, and struck out 6. (there are several instances where our pitcher did not get into the game, including 2 from Zack Greinke)

Only 2 Dback allstars have had multiple hit in the same game, Devon White in 1998 and Damian Miller in 2002. White went 3-3 with a triple. Goldy just went 2-12 and Gonzo went 4-7. Finley (2000), Gonzo (2005) and Miller (2000) are the only ones with an RBI.
