Let's hope this game is just as exciting as the HR Derby was! (Also I hope it doesn't go into extras because automatic runners suck, Manfried)

NL lineup seems scarier, but that could be a function of me being more familiar with the players.

Also, hootin and hollerin for Lucas Giolito, one of the SASiest MLB players out there.

Indians fans still salty about 2016 I see. It's not KB's fault you blew a 3-1 lead.

Also can we stop the circle jerk and just play ball already? Jesus. Stop hyping the thing I'm already watching.
