    Oh. My. God.

    Josh Hamilton is INSANE. 19 freakin' Home Runs in the 1st round. Hopefully he doesn't run out of gas because he deserves to win this competition. I hope he hits it out of the stadium.

    From a guy who played a little ball, this is one of the greatest showcases that I've ever seen. Truly unbelievable.

    I honestly thought he'd make 30 the way he was hitting, that one pitch which was thrown high inside messed up his rhythm.

    It's possible if he tires himself out, but I think it was meant to be for him tonight.

    Is anyone else annoyed by Rick Rielly? What a douchebag. He is whining about Ryan Howard not being there when Howard is batting .234. I mean come on. He's not even hitting his weight. Get him and Berman out of there.
