Sorry if I missed it before, but does anyone know why Weeks is wearing No. 19?

It's his brother Jemile.

Anyone else fear it's about to come down to NYY vs. BOS? (in which case I can't turn off the TV soon enough)

Agreed, that was amazing! But Prince can do it here. 15 to tie. Let's go big fella!

[stalton]

so whats a good number to shoot for this round...10?

15 was the correct answer

[hawing]

Hmm. Too bad the five swingoff swings couldn't count. At least Prince rocked the swingoff.

So. Save the rest for the Brewers, Prince.

This thing is just too long. Also, they need to frshen up the format a bit. Bring back old sluggers like Sexson, etc. Maybe count a HR as 2 points if it's opposite field, over 450, etc. 2 bonus points for the longest HR of the round, lots of things they could do. It was fun watching Cano, he made it look like Xbox.

Fan almost falls 20 feet going after a Prince home run. Have to admit, didn't catch that live.
