HOME Run Derby

Josh Hamilton is a man among boys

24 homes first round so far

and all bombs

i remember reading he had the fastest bat speed of any prospect and after a 3 year abscense from the game, he got back to the majors after just 15 minor league games WOW

Congrats Josh you deserve it

UNBELIEVABLE

It is a pleasure to watch him hit the ball, what a natural



A NEW Record 28 in the first round,

that was a blast, I hope his pitcher can get some ice on his arm and get ready for the next round. The guy had a pitch count of 54 and he looked like he was in his late 50's to early 60's and said his arm was wore out.




ed:update total of first round

Pretty boring except for Hamilton.

His pitcher is 71.

Good thing he can take a quick nap since he won't need to pitch in RD 2

I picked Morneau in the beginning, just because he had such a low total. Other than the fact that he has to face Hamilton in the finals, I feel pretty good about that pick right now

Definitely has a shot, was it Sosa who blew up in the 1st round awhile back and couldn't finish the deal?


Good luck with your pick

That was great...


All hail josh...

I picked Morneau... I wanted the little guy to win. But Hamilton is lighting this thing UP. It’s like watching Sosa in milwaukee a couple years ago. "

That was what I had posted on Myspace, on their discussion boards, as Hamilton was on his first round tear. i guss I got Lucky....

Whoo hoo!!!!!!!

Awww mannn... I missed it

Joshs first round should be the most popular thing on youtube...

If the MLB let anything on youtube...


Seriously, the MLB shoots itslef in the foot with this... The NBA is getting more popular because of Youtube, and that you can pretty much find ANY game you want..

And you can't find a single Barry Bond HR of MLB footage... only Fans videos....
