HR Derby thread

Was hoping Bautista would put on a show. I guess not. Guys who have timing mechanisms in their swing probably have a hard getting the timing down. Especially guys with leg kicks. Holliday and Bautista both did poorly.

Glad Cano won, he deserved it and cool that his dad was the pitcher.

 

I was surprised how much power he really has. He hit some absolute bombs in the first round.

Chris Berman is a terrible human being, but especially so when he "calls" the HR Derby.

I missed the derby, but just went to see some highlights. The only reason I am posting in this thread is to ask how Berman has a job, let alone the derby. His "back back back" call is the worse signature I've ever heard from any commentator in any sport. Absolutely excruciating...

LOL, the HR derby is trash.

It's an enjoyable event that is made worse by being on ESPN. You don't always get a great year, but you can't tell me that things like a mammoth Thomas BP shot, that run by Hamilton, or the run by Abreu aren't entertaining.

The Cano story was enjoyable to watch last night, especially for anyone with a son. As for the celebrity game, I can't believe how bad the production of that was from ESPN.

The biggest downside to the HR Derby is ESPN as well.
