IGT Home Run Derby

Apparently Stanton hasn't slowed down after the Mets series.

Berman is awful, but we knew that. He was just taken by surprise that Adam Duvall passed Wil Myers because he was too busy snuggling with Big Papi.

Was watching with hubby but had to give up. Between Berman and the earsplitting music, I couldn't stand the noise. I feel bad too, because hubby is enjoying it :(

This completely slipped my mind. Put it on about a half hour ago and I'm still not watching. Berman keeps yelling at me.

I like the new format. I'm not sure why there's a DJ in right field. Todd Frazier goes to the next round.

I have to say Petco looks like an absolutely gorgeous stadium. I'd love too see a game there.

Bermans going off like the drunk you never want sitting next to you. lol.

And Trumbo goes down to Stanton! Some impressive bombs, though!

Stanton's great fun to watch. Out of all those guys he hits the most effortless kaBOOMs.

Like drafts and hours-long pre-game shows -- ultimately meaningless non-events and therefore in need of constant over-the-top hype -- the HR Derby is right up Chris Berman's alley. It's (one of) the reason(s) I don't watch.

Zvon Jul 11 2016 09:41 PM Re: IGT Home Run Derby

It's over. I didn't even notice. Pretty sure Stanton won. Oh, now the celebrity bullshit game. I'll keep this on but won't be watching. I'll listen to these guys yell for awhile. Making plenty of new cards though. See, just like Colorforms:

Mets Guy in Michigan Jul 11 2016 09:46 PM Re: IGT Home Run Derby

Nice card! Stanton won handily. These guys are NOT taking softball seriously!

Zvon Jul 11 2016 09:56 PM Re: IGT Home Run Derby

Who made that nice catch out in left? I put the sound down. Ha, this is actually funny if you watch it. All the right fielders suck. Felt bad for that old guy who ate some grass.

Yuk. Watched not one second of this.
