Im wanting to see Prince do some work........

he’ll get tired quickly though.

Joe Mauer for the win.
Hes not a Machine, hes just albert.

Hes winnin it.

Ryan Howard FTW
Dang Ozzie has some grey going on.....

all distinguished and stuff.

HR Derby rules are utter bullshit!
yawn

Somewhere, somebody cares about the HR derby. Not me.

By now, I am sure listeners everywhere are already tiring of the Berman rhetoric. He is, the least interesting man in the world.

I like the guy.........

Guess Im in the minority.

I think he's loud, arrogant and obnoxious

You are the minority.

But we still love you.

So do I, he's a lot of things but he tries to be fair, and I give him points for that.
wow, another Berman apologist

TheOptomist!?!? Who wouldda thought.

I give him points for being self-serving, aloof, mind-numbing and loud. Did I mention obnoxious?

some people find him campy and kitschy

I just think he sucks.

“You’re with me, Leather.”

Berman I can tune out but Morgan is utter garbage
I hope those banners get hit 20 times tonight...........

20 mil for cancer reasearch from Mastercard would be cool

That would be awesome.

Unfortunately, the only guy I’d give a decent chance of actually hitting one would be 2008 Josh Hamilton and his ludicrous HR distances.

'Hey Albert, my family really needs that car. No pressure though."
sorry to be so negative...

but those all stars uni’s are terrible.

they're terrible every year now

the ones in San Fran were real eyesores

agreed HaloDutch

Those SF ones were seizure-inducing

Atleast their ad campaign was better this year.

That creepy statue of liberty deal they had going on last year was the absolute worst.

will pujols swing the bat?
LOL Pujols better buy that guy a car.
Hello Erin...............

hotty mchotpants

For the rest of his life, when that guy sees Pujols homer

“oh sure, NOW he hits the fuckin thing. But when I needed a car, nuthin.”

LOL, I love the HR totals. Which of these totals is not like the others?
damn that was a bomb
huh. Cruz has matched his career home runs in the first half.

yeah, no HGH there, nope.

Boy, are the AL entries underwhelming compared to NL or what?

Inge, Mauer?

some one is going to go yard here
No good to seeeeeee YOU here Erin......
nice showing there.
11 is actually really good. He's almost certainly in the 2nd round.
come on Prince.......

do it for us chubby guys

Prince needs to come to the Angels.

imagine the lucrative Carls Jr and in-N-Out endorsements….

He's vegetarian though
480??????

atta boy

oo nice catch
HAHA 497!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nice

Now there's a good one.

Almost 500.

Fielder matching Cruz' total.
Prince Fielder is a G
you see his two boys?

they’re lil hams lol

nice to see some gold balls being hit out.........

I think there has been three right?

Who's gonna watch the celeb softball game?

Me. That’s who.

Over/Under for Inge 6.5

Im going under.

Inge looks tiny.
Pull a Vlad and get a new bat
8 straight outs
It wouldn't be ESPN without some Derek Jeter slurpage.
"Whats it gonna take to beat

Teams like the Red sox…The Angels?"

HA!

He shoulda said…“a MIRACLE! We NEVER beat the Angels!”

Dang I over-estimated Inge lol
you suck Inge
LOOOOOOOSSSSSEEEEEERRRRRR
Figgins coulda hit that many

;)

that would require them to acknowledge his exsistence
So...

What is the Tigers blog?

its called BLESS YOU BOYS
oh Crap its Tim McCarver. plug your ears
uh Im hearing Joe Buck....

which is just as bad

A-Gon not doing much better than Inge.

C’mon man, you play in one of the worst pitchers stadiums in baseball.

Atleast he got on the board.
Joe Buck is tool.........

and nice shirt too ya Nancy

wheres Arte Lange when you need him
lets see of Pena can justify his All Star status
total Angels in that MLB Network promo..0
I was proud of State Farm for including us in their commercial.
I like State Farm. been my insurance company for a decade.
My grandma has worked for State Farm for like 40 years.........

she’s retired from there two times lol.

And she still fills in occasionally when someone calls sick……..shes amazing.,

Vladdy wasn't lefthanded, ya JERKS.
Pena's using the whole field.......

nice

Pena goin' opfield quite a bit.
I think it's cause he's gettin' pitched outside, personally.
Pena doing okay
Breaking News: Erin Andrews seen eating in the background

Good evening, all

5 for Carlos. Not horrible.
Ryan Howard, Subway aficionado
Not a fan of the tracer ball effect
howard en fuego
reminds me of Fox's hockey coverage back in the day

the ol’ glowing puck

Thought the same thing
Mauer started out well but lost it.
I don't like the shot

From below. You can’t tell how far it’s going…

good lord did you see the pubes on that guys face?
Did he get them from Scott Tenerman?
Scott Tenerman must die
Change your bat, Albert!
love that sound. BOOM!
Albert looks to be feeling the pressure.
Nice catch, kid.
fan aided...........

you’re welcome Poo Holes

I admit it

I laugh everytime I see the “Card fans take it in their Pujols” shirt

lol I've never seen that
LOL

Never seen it

Putting himself under waaaaaay too much pressure.
Got 5, needs 1 more.
Albert pulls it out
Albert the Clutch
He should be out..

That wasn’t a HR

Pujols blew it.

The Home Run Derby is ruined! Waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!

Shoulda brought Brad Lidge in for the last out.........

then he woulda been okay

LMAO, I can't believe you went there.
oh yeah......

I SO went there :)

they should all just have Jepsen pitch to them
then the ball would break your window

:)

Would have said the same thing about Bulger toward the end of May to Mid June

Just load the bases first…

Mauer out of it.

C’mon, Albert.

There we go, 1.
HEY HEY HEY............................
There we go! Albert wins the bat off!
He's gotta make up alot of HR's though to get into the final.........

he’s 6 behind the leaders.

Yeah, but we already know Albert can get on a roll, he hit 14 in the second round of 2003.
And he's still warm
just got in from work

First day of work in LA City Hall and guess what? We were evacuated. But I like my internship so far.

damn hippy terrorists
Not gonna make it.
1 more eliminates Albert...
yup - and I didn't exect that
shut up Morgan.........

quit trying to guess.

His natural bull**** coming to the fore there.

‘Yes…no…yes…no…’

Damn

These aren’t even close. Cruz has a nasty swing.

C'mon Cruz, AL represent!
I really like

how Ryan Howard got distracted by the home runs in the middle of his interview. He just…trailed…off and then finished his sentence.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
So, who ya got in the finals?

I’ma take Cruz.

gotta stick with the King..........
I'm pretty sure what Fielder did to that ball was a crime. Somewhere.
I'm cheering for Cruz - AL all the way.
oh........must be nice to volunteer in places like Maui and San Juan..........

I bet they wouldnt come to my former High School in Podunk Northern California……..

Morgan says Cruz.

Put your money on Fielder.

some Halo talk........

interesting

Holy Crap!

They’re talkin’ Halos!

C'mon Prince

Don’t let the freakin’ Rangers steal the show two years in a row.

3 more............

come on Prince.

Fielder's got a potty mouth.
Fielder lookin' good thus far.

I love how they have to keep bleeping him.

lol Geek Fielder?

\

C'mon Prince

Put that clown away.

Are those tiny blackouts

After outs to bleep words?

I’ve heard “Oh Shhhhh———-” among others.

4 outs for one homerun

I like his chances

Make that 3
Well...never mind.
fail by that kid lol
YAHTZEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My pick wins it!
Cruz is pissed!

Cmon dude…lighten up

Cruz looks bummed

HA!

Cruz may have shaken hands,

But he still looked like he wanted to kill something

I wonder

How far the ball would go in Arlington?

Erin hotpants makes me all tingly......
Lulz @ Nelly's two-run jack
Andy Richter

Jenna Fischer = hot

She’s cute in that jersey.
