Butt first, let's

At least none of the losers are embarrassing themselves. They're all getting double digits off bad pitchers.

Only one embarrassing tonight is ESPN.

I've wondered this for years. To add how about a catcher has to catch a pitch and pop up throw to 2nd and whoever does it fastest.

Real good showing for Josh Bell after that timeout. He had a bad start though and Acuņa rules.

God loving save my soul for saying it, but I loving miss Chris Berman. At least he let you know when dingers were happening instead of inanely pattering about exit velocity in a loving glorified batting practice.

this would be interesting, Acuna's swing is a lot less violent so he may have more gas in the final round

18 for Bell isn't enough to advance, but it's a good effort. Glad he got to do this.
