VaTerp 0 Posted July 15, 2008 And his pitcher is 71 years old. Double The Home Run Derby has never really been all that great to me but this is one of the best spectacles Ive ever seen in sports. 28 Homers in one round. Amazing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjlmonster 0 Posted July 15, 2008 Don't usually watch, but sat down to dinner, turned it on and WOW. Kid can hit the ball - 28 in the first round and about 12 or 13 in a row! Here's to 2nd chances! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted July 15, 2008 28. 8th out he swung at one on his hands so he gave that out away. 502 ft, 504 ft...jeez. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jets24 6 Posted July 15, 2008 I love the fact that he chose the old man to come back and pitch to him. I think they both are on steroids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vikings4ever 496 Posted July 15, 2008 Too bad nobody told him it doesn't matter how many total home runs he hit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilroy69 995 Posted July 15, 2008 Also too bad he is in the bathroom between at bats shooting up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lionsjunkie 1 Posted July 15, 2008 Incredible Now just hope he has that swing next week so he can carry my Fantasy Baseball team to the championship Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yostevo 0 Posted July 15, 2008 Too bad nobody told him it doesn't matter how many total home runs he hit. Oh it matters. Just ask his agent and pocketbook. You guys are all talking about him aren't you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KSB2424 3,083 Posted July 15, 2008 Oh it matters. Just ask his agent and pocketbook. You guys are all talking about him aren't you? Exactly. Who cares who wins, it is who puts on the best show. Hamilton definitely did that and then some. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patweisers44 698 Posted July 15, 2008 An amazing display no doubt, but you gotta know those baseballs are basically golf balls with a leather cover sewn on them. A friend of mine caught a ball during the '05 (?) HR Derby and its like a rock compared to a baseball caught during a regular season game. Just sayin' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfalcon 824 Posted July 15, 2008 An amazing display no doubt, but you gotta know those baseballs are basically golf balls with a leather cover sewn on them. A friend of mine caught a ball during the '05 (?) HR Derby and its like a rock compared to a baseball caught during a regular season game. Just sayin' as well they should be during the HR Derby. I'd also like it if all the players used corked bats for this event (if they aren't already). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patweisers44 698 Posted July 15, 2008 as well they should be during the HR Derby. I'd also like it if all the players used corked bats for this event (if they aren't already). and they should be allowed to do a couple cycles of 'roids leading up to the event too....

surferskin 30 Posted July 15, 2008 Does anyone remember when this thing actually had the stars of the game participating in it? I didn't watch a second Berman hamming it up over B list MLB players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
