Will Alonso defend his crown, or another slugger will dethrone him?

I’ll predict Ohtani wins, I also think Olson has a good chance. I will watch it, I like the home run derby more than the actual all star game.

Rooting for Alonso, Mancini would be the best story, but I think Ohtani pulls it off. He has some of the easiest power I've ever seen.

If the Padres are going to trade for Gallo, I guess I should root for him to get kicked out immediately both for health and price reasons.

I see all the participants wearing #44. Must be honoring Hank Aaron.

Alonso is my pick, too bad my boy Vladdy jr took a pass on it.

Not bad for Mancini, 24 HR.

That was an exciting first battle - Mancini went on a tear after his timeout, and Olson hit some bombs but came up 1 short!! Mancini advances!!

Olson missed tying Mancini with a foul HR.

Olson missed tying Mancini with a foul HR. He missed by staring at the ball and the pitcher taking too long between pitches and not throwing in the last 10 seconds.

Story beat Gallo 20-19. The pitcher for Gallo was too slow and the last HR didn't count.

Gallo really struggled, he heated up at the end but it was too late. Another exciting battle though.
