    human beings communicate about "possessing the evening". nicely Justin "owns" the trophy. you could say what you pick. convinced Josh hit the most homestead runs in a round. although, it became no longer the staggering round. It turned right into a shame to ascertain him do what he did in round 2, then crumple interior the staggering. it remains incorrect to disrespect the winner, by ability of advertising the perfect tale. Josh did not "own" something, except the 2d round. Too undesirable, there are 3 rounds. He knew the regulations and chosen to shop hitting the HR's, for this reason tiring himself to the point the position he might want to no longer win. His putting on a good prepare finally value him the identify. Or depending on the business, perhaps no longer. i will not inform you procedures a lot of human beings now have self belief Josh received the identify very last 12 months via commercial.

    On one hand, I hope they at least ask the AL Leader so far, Grady Sizemore, but when I see what it's done to others in the past, most recently, Alex Rios last year, where their power disappears after the all-star game, maybe Grady should pass.

    Ok !! I think we all know that Carlos Quentin should be in the home run derby. He is tied for 2nd with 19 home runs, and this is his first breakout year.

  • those five r doing it but lance berkman got hurt last night so i dont know if he will

    and what about the whole call big papis shot thing???

    he has to do it cuz he signed with like state farm to do the "call big papis shot presented by state farm, like a good neighbor, state farm is there."
