The players are wearing their actual jerseys for once in the derby!


And the players should wear the "workout" jerseys in the actual game. Just not a fan of players wearing different jerseys. I mean if MLB really wants to sell All-Star jerseys, then they should be worn in the actual game.

Not pumped for the event in general, but I'm excited to see how Hoskins performs. He can mashy mashy.

Could be worse for Aguilar.

At least he didn't get shutout ala 2014 when Stanton lost 1-0 in the semis to Todd Frazier.

Freeman is a line drive beast. Line drives don't go over the fence though. He was a weird pick for this derby.

Nice for MLB to juice the baseballs for Harper so he could win the HR derby in Washington in his last season with the Nats. :sarcasm:

And yet they didn’t juice the balls for Stanton when he could have won the derby in Miami in his last season with the Marlins.

Awesome final round, didn’t think he could do it off the start.

His dad looks like he should be cage fighting.

Harper’s swing is pretty impressive. He uses his legs and leads with hips before his arms swing I think that how he gets his extremely fast bat speed.
When ESPN shows his batting swing in slow motion I can see the sequence of motion to get his barrel at top speed
