I do like how when they introduced Sanchez they pointed out how many HR's he had last year, not this year, because if they announced that everybody would be confused about a dude with only 13 HR's being in the derby.

They should do a pitcher equivalent for strike outs but the idea would be you get average people from the stands and if a rando normal person makes contact you're done

If the home run derby is dudes hitting dongs off their dads, than the strikeout derby should likewise be how many times you can strike out your dad.
