It's a problem you think we need to explain ourselves.

That was a pretty drat fun derby even if the wrong guy won.

In any other situation it'd obviously be Joc, but the right person won for the occasion. It's optimally Good Entertainment when the crowd is going bananas for the hometown hero and eventual winner at the very end

OK... my son was bouncing off the walls, and my wife, who loves me so much she politely tolerates all of this baseball stuff and even does a good impression of a baseball fan, was excited as hell.

I had my doubts. I thought it was crazy and dumb. And I was totally wrong.

My mom was fully engrossed in this, and she doesn't give a rat's rear end about baseball.

One thing I think would be hilarious would be an all-pitcher bunt derby. Get some rookies or AAA players for designated runners on 1st, and watch the antidingers!
