By Ben Cosman and Gemma Kaneko | July 18, 2016

Week 15 of MLB might have had fewer games than usual, but that doesn't mean it wasn't full of fantastic moments. After all, who can deny the power, the joy and the glory of the the D-backs' newest creation?

Now that we're all sufficiently dazzled by ice cream, on to the baseball.
Best offensive play
Two young stars go yard at the All-Star Game, Chris Taylor's first career home run is a pretty big one and Carlos Correa's got wheels.

Best defensive play
Daniel Murphy demonstrates some All-Star defense, Joe Mauer lays out, Correa makes a lightning-fast snag and Yangervis Solarte is nacho average third baseman:

Best pitching performance
Dellin Betances needs a level above All-Star, Stephen Strasburg goes 13-0, Matt Shoemaker finishes his first complete game with 13 strikeouts and Jacob deGrom deGrominates.

Best rogue baseball
Baseballs went rogue in all sorts of ways last week. Wil Myersgot plunked during the Home Run Derby,Carlos Gonzálezshattered a drinking cup and a foul ball in Philly really had it in for a Mets fan's beer.
