You can really appreciate the power that all different kinds of major leaguers have. Obviously last year, Judge put on a show that we'll probably never see again. But I'm still having a pretty good time watching this. It wouldve been cool if they had Mac Williamson... if he's still around... Remember him? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tommy2guns 139 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Lol I swear at least 2 of those HRs in the final minute landed at the same time. Thanks for the rigging Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tommy2guns 139 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Exactly. I dont think 10 hrs in 40 seconds is actually possible by the rules. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

richg24 1,773 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 His pops pitching was pretty suspect though. He needed all the help he could get Quote Link to post Share on other sites
STLSU 543 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 One of the beat Derbies this man has seen. Love the current format. Grats to Harper and maybe he gets going in a positive direction hereon out. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDL88 31 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Schwarber had the 2nd most homers all time with 55, Stanton the record holder at 61. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Judge would've had about 70 last year if he weren't forced to hit 2nd every time. Stat doesn't really work now given the format.

jahweedum 326 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 The new format has completely rejuvenated the Derby. This one was FANTASTIC and the crowd made it even better. The drama with Harper's dad throwing SO many bad pitches then Harper going on that run. It was FUN! I'd LOVE to see a skills competition like Betts was talking about added. Like a running the bases while fielding or throwing long balls to specific targets or something. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dark Kn19ht 449 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 What was the furthest HR hit last night? Baez at 479 ft. was the mark I could remember. Very entertaining HRD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
