This is infinitely more captivating than the new derby format.
This may just force them to change it back. I don't watch the HR Derby now because it's so freaking long and boring. I'll come back to watch this.

Judge and ohtani weren’t even present. Neither were on the field watching the entire time the hit off was going on


Might be a matter of getting loose also. Some guys have major routines.

don't think Boone cared. It will be hilarious if the Yankoffs make the World Series but lose Game 7 on the road. I'm sure he won't hear the end of it from the fans.


The All Star game hasn’t determined home field advantage since 2017.

I'm predicting Brewers-Red Sox in an old AL East matchup. The Suarez HBP could end up hurting Milwaukee most this session and Arizona's future (it's been heavily rumored thar they could move him for Jesus Made).

Thank Aaron Boone for picking a guy whose career high in a season is 11 homer runs to extend it. That was pretty damn fun though. If both leagues would have put the best hitters up it could have been even more great.

I am a huge baseball fan (mainly watch college and HS) and I get it. But damn you want to bring in fans this is where you need Judge and Ohtani facing off. Sheeit man up for 3 swings and who GAS about a warm up routine.

Anyone know if that MVP award (Ted Williams Award- nice) is glass or plexiglass?

As a fan I don’t disagree.

But if one of those guys hurts himself as a result of not stretching out enough, MLB would never hear the end of it.

Sure didn’t seem to bother Kyle Schwarber. Judge is a puss for passing on this. Typical Yankee no show

MLB can’t play it safe when it comes to trying to gain popularity. They needed their stars to show up tonight and they had literally already left the stadium.

Just a wild idea but maybe stay for the whole game

You think he left early with other players because they were scared of the game maybe being tied and then getting picked?

Look I incorrectly called them pussies earlier to until I realize they weren’t even there

Yankees play Atlanta on Friday, why would Judge be on a plane

You’re right, but I also think the pampering of athletes is beyond ridiculous now. Guys opting out of the ASG because they want rest? Don’t want to risk injury? You’ll only play 3 innings max anyway. That’s what? Maybe 4-5 swings and 3 plays headed your way?
