I just rewound it and saw some kid get clobbered in the head after vladdy’s 1st HR in final. Had his glove up and just took it off the face. Hope he’s OK. Ban the kids in the OF – Put up nets and bubble wrap everywhere

Safco is a launching pad today. But Robert used up some of his HRs playing against us.

I don’t like this continual first pitch, swing at anything-ism going on during this homerun derby. They should be tiring out the pitcher.

Actually, I’m not watching and don’t care. I’m glad neither Shohei or Emilio are participating

I had $10 on Alonso, so little bummed. However, I am impressed that you would know that Ohtani and Estevez are not even there at HRD event. You must have ESP!  😉

Let’s change the owner of the HRD – blame arte

The umps suck too – robots!

This whole ASG break with all the Ohtani media attention is like watching your significant other cheating on you as you look on and they know you know and there’s nothing you can do about it… or something. Ohtani is gone, it’s just a matter of how (trade or FA) at this point.

Adley putting on a show! Go Beavs! had the privilege of watching him take BP several times in Goss. Glad the world gets to see his raw power

Radio mentioned that his pitcher was his own father. He actually switched to his right side to hit 6 last homeruns. Same pride as Beaver fan and able to watch him pitch and catch from the best seat in the house as plate umpire at Sherwood High.

Rooting for Vladdy Jr vs Polar Bear final with Vladdy winning.

I hope that you had $ on Vladdy JR, sir. He deserved to win after hitting 91 total homeruns and still lost in 2019.

With the state of the team, I’m pretty indifferent about any part of the ASG festivities. Plus, I don’t want to hear everyone’s opinions on where Shohei is headed next year. Too depressing.

I agree…wake me up when there is a decision.
