Ryan Howard needs 2 more just to have any chance to continue.

How awesome would it be to pitch for these guys. Maybe I need to call my connection in the Twins' organization to work something out...

Howard said he was tired and then hits two long bombs. He hits another and surpasses Pujols, knocking Pujols officially out.

It would be amazing and very nerve wracking at the same time, since most of us are not used to that kind of pressure and focus on us.
Howard had a great late run there.

I thought the same thing about being a catcher in the bullpen.

Cruz hit 5 and will advance to round 3. What a great story for Cruz who has finally put it all together after years of showing promise but not really delivering.
Re: '09 Homerun Derby Thread / Discuss tonight's derby tonight on our Tweet Board!
Fielder needs 5 to get to the finals.
Re: '09 Homerun Derby Thread / Discuss tonight's derby tonight on our Tweet Board!
Fielder is just crushing the baseball right now, almost hit one 500 feet the other way.
Cruz versus Fielder in the final.
Re: '09 Homerun Derby Thread / Discuss tonight's derby tonight on our Tweet Board!
503' to right. what a shot.
Re: '09 Homerun Derby Thread / Discuss tonight's derby tonight on our Tweet Board!
Cruz finishes with five, is it enough to win? If Fielder would have stopped once he had secured his position to the last round, I would put it all on him, but fatigue has to be setting in for him...

Fielder with yet another bomb and he wins it. Congrats Prince!
It wasn't as exciting as last year's event, but it was a good watch.

Prince Fielder wins the Home Run Derby. Pretty impressive for a 25 year old kid.
