I used to watch Frazier play in the rookie league here (Billings Mustangs). Glad to see him pull it out!

That's what she said

You disagree? That's halfway across the Ohio River, no question they should get a bonus for that.

This. My wife actually turned it on when it started and I was laughing at her for watching. Then, one hour into it, and she's fetching me beers. :D. That was a great event, minus all the mouth garbage from Chris Berman. Geezus, that phuchwad is annoying!

That was the best Derby I've ever seen. New format kicks ass.

Maybe baseball is figuring out that they need to change a few things to grow this sport. And that's good news.

A heartwarming moment was probably dead last on the list of things you might expect from the Home Run Derby, but Albert Pujols gave us just that on Monday night. After losing to Dodgers rookie Joc Pederson, the Angels veteran hugged the man who just bested him, then made sure Champ Pederson (Joc's older brother) got a hug too.

Champ has Down syndrome and Pujols is his favorite player. Earlier this year, Pujols gave him a signed jersey and the two have become fast friends. This was a truly great moment.

Nice to see my hometown represented and family I know win the HR derby.

I'll probably see Charlie this weekend down at TRELL

best part of the night ... I spent many years of my life hating Pujols (in a respectful way), but I must say, he made me a fan last night

Just awesome.
