Derby participants

#1 Pujols vs #8 Bryant
#4 Pederson vs #5 Machado

#3 Donaldson vs #6 Rizzo
#2 Frazier vs #7 Fielder

5 righties and 3 lefties....ordering tickets tomorrow at lunch....going for LF even though I think the lefties will do better than the righties overall.

Anyone think they could do the HR derby like they did back in the day that you can see on ESPN classic nowadays? Wouldnt be an event to be held at the ASG but could be a series. I almost like the banter between the announcer and hitter while the other guy hits as much as the contest itself.

May have to tune in this year with the new format. It had gotten very stale over the years

Just checked my site and the two cheaper seats in the section sold so I got nervous and bought the ones I've been eyeing.

My son and I'll be in Sect 105 row E....bottom section of LF seats...5 rows deep

Prefect HR territory. I'll be in RF, section 144. Was hoping for more lefties but I'll take 3.

I like RF better but wanted near the HR.....when I downloaded them to print they were aisle seats 1 and 2 but I believe those are aisle between 105 and 106, which puts us closer to the foul pole than I wanted (was hoping for middle part or towards 104, but pretty sure from RF foul pole and around that seat numbers go from big to small and left to right if looking from the field. Should be great though. Happy they kept coming down in price. Waiting for ASG to lower a bit more before buying.

Not sure if they show or not (ever since I can't use tapatalk for here anymore)

Here is a pic of our derby seats....bottom middle of pic where white arrow is. Not the side I was wanting but it'll be good.

So I just saw there will be a new format for the HR Derby tonight? Fucking dumb. Should have just left it as 10 outs. Also sucks even more now that Stanton is out. He would have dominated.

Down to 4 minutes each with no extra time but every player just put on a 1 minute each display.

Frazier is going to win

If Pujols loses in the semis, does Todd still have to hit first in the finals?

The 4 min time was just right. I don't think they'll ever do the 5 min they had originally planned.
