I'm taking Braun. No one seems to be talking about him. He has just as much power, if not more, than anyone else in the field.

Yankee stadium's short porch to right means a lefty will win. At another stadium, there is a good shot I'd have backed Braun.

Yeah, that 318 down the left field line is much further than the 314 down the right field line. I'm still taking Braun.

You and your facts.... :notworthy

You have a valid point though. Right-center is closer than left-center, mainly because the walls in left field go out a lot steeper towards center.

Rick Reilly's comment about everyone being white in this might have been one of the most awkward comments ever.

 

+1

 

and Hamilton just went 502 and Berman said there's no way anyone can get the ball out of the stadium.. Hamilton almost made Berman look silly on that first homerun.

ESPN is playing him so much money but he hasn't contributed much outside the US Open.
