Home Run Derby

[TruffleShuffle]

Guess nobody is interested in this? I'm watching. After all, I need to see who has the best HGH in baseball :lol:

 

John Kruk just picked the guy who hit zero home runs the last time he competed... good to see the commentators are off to a solid start.

I personally enjoyed pre-show when Jim Thome randomly came out of nowhere and started yelling/rambling at Harold Reynolds during an interview with Mauer and AJP.

[TruffleShuffle]

Bill Mazeroski is in the HOF with a career OBP under .300 and having never put up an OPS+ over 100. Ron Santo isn't. :roll:

[TruffleShuffle]

Tejada's pitcher sure is working the inside corner.

[Outshined_One]

Nice 2nd HR, but otherwise uneventful for Tejada.

[TruffleShuffle]

boo lance berkman

[Outshined_One]

Berkman got a freebie, haha.

[TruffleShuffle]

Did John Kruk really have to talk to Andre Dawson to know that Miguel Cabrera is a special player?

[TruffleShuffle]

Wow, that rope hitting the foul pole was LOUD.

[Outshined_One]

Cabrera had a nice go of it.

[TruffleShuffle]

Cabrera had a nice go of it.

 

He has peaked. Marlins should trade him to the Cubs.

HEY HAROLD IT'S ME JI

 

JIM

 

 

 

 

I think Dye is gonna win. If Dye didnt play for that other Chicago team, I think i'd love him as a player.

[Rob]

Is it really necessary to bring Morgan in to talk? Gah!

[TruffleShuffle]

Nice pick to win Kruk - one homer

[TruffleShuffle]

Wright is en fuego

[JWCUB]

David Wright. =P~ =P~

[Mizzou]

Can someone post who has already hit and their HR totals? It kind of sucks not having cable.

[TruffleShuffle]

haha, did Wright just say "ah s***"? It went silent all of a sudden.

Tejada & Berkman: 3 each

Cabrera: 9

Glaus: 1

Wright: 16 (plus two expletives)

Thanks!

 

16? Holy crap.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Does anyone else think that ESPN is padding the distances on these Home Runs? There have been seemingly run of the mill home runs measured at 460 feet. Berman is going nuts like these guys are hitting huge shots, but there really hasn't been anything all that spectacular. Typical ESPN overkill...

[TruffleShuffle]

Man, do they really have to interview this a-hole right now?

If Maz had never hit that homer, he wouldn't be in. Just like if Ozzie Smith hadn't made some highlight-reel defensive plays, he woudln't be in either.

[Mark_R]

Big Papi can hit the ball far :shock:

[Mark_R]

Great work by Howard to hit some clutch (aka trade for him plz) hr's on out 9.
