Wow, what a show put on by David Ortiz in the home run derby. It’s great to see him do this on a National stage after people wanted to write him off for the second season in a row.
They really have to do something about the derby though. At the scheduled two hours, with my current favorite player in the running, it still borders on too long. Once it goes over by 30 minutes with Berman “back”ing and making terrible jokes and Joe Morgan oozing bitter all over everything, it starts to get brutal. Maybe drop the field to six batters, then three and then the top two slug it out. Something has to be done though. Homeruns start to look the same after a while. This isn’t the dunk contest where there’s some variety and even the dunk contest has gotten stale in recent years.
Congrats again Big Papi.

Booo Big Papi,
JK, it was an impressive performance… even though he plays for the Sox.
