If I was Vlad and they told me I had to go back-to-back, I'd quit and go home. What bullshit.

A big yawn. I haven't watched the all-star game and home run derby in years.

Yeah. They're throwing these pitches rapid fire. You could tell it took it's toll on all the guys. I get tired just watching.

And Vlad is a fat fucker so he must have been exhausted. Still won, though.

It's lost some of it's luster over the years, but my wife likes baseball, so like opening day, we do Chicago Hot Dogs for dinner and enjoy the ASG. I love her.
Missed the HR Derby....I don't have ESPN or a live streaming service...I know...I'm sorry I'm poor. :lol:

I dig it! Hot dogs sound great. There were a few cool moments last night, including Adley Rutschman's dad pitching to him. I wish they'd go back to the 10 outs format though. Each pitch felt like a game itself and you had time to admire the distance. Should be a good game tonight -- I'm glad the Diamondbacks are getting some love with Gallen starting. We'll see if the National League can break the AL's 9 game winning streak.

Terrible. And they've faded out their caps to the same color.

individual uniforms is dumb. Its a league all star Team. Teams have uniforms. Uniform is uniform for a reason.

Individual uniforms for HR Derby where you are representing yourself. Team uniform for game.

I wouldnt be opposed to them wearing their team's hat however.

I got you. Well, they have to sell new hats -- everything is a cash grab now. I'm surprised not all MLB teams have those "city connect" jerseys. And I'm surprised those teams that have them don't put out a new one every season like the NBA.
