2008 Home Run Derby

I'm just now watching Hamilton's 1st round (who was my pick:D) This is literally making me tear up this is such a good story especially with his Legion coach throwing to him. I'll definitely be praying for him often to stay sober most importantly. This is great for the game.

Remember, KGJ hit it in the HR derby...

I think Juan Gone's shot off the facing of the last deck was hit harder. A line drive as it were...

True. A lot of guys have come close to the warehouse. I can't remember the last homer that went into the club level out there, let alone almost hitting the upper deck.

As much as this story with Hamilton means to me... Rick Reilly needs to stop talking. For the love of God, unplug his mic.

Is this Reilly guy trying to get fired? He's put his foot in his mouth like 10 times tonight.

If God came down from heaven right now and was asked to create the perfect Baseball player, he would create Josh Hamilton. He's unbelievable to watch.

Jimmy Narron is with him constantly. He carries twenty dollars.

The award for unintentionally funny comment goes to Rick Reilly. Talking about Clay Counsil, "That guy probably wakes up stiff". I know what he meant and what he was talking about...but it just didn't sound right.:laughlol:

This award should just be renamed the Rick Reilly Memorial Award.

Quite a loyal friend. I think it's wonderful.

My Braun-Hamilton final is toast now.

Hamilton can still hit HRs. In case you were curious.

The Longest Homeruns of the Night stat was kind of anticlimactic...

The "No ****" Stat of the Night, brought to you by Imodium AD.

[J.D.]

I'm betting Hamilton does it for him.

how many do you think Hamilton is going to get in the final round?
