Del Shofner : 7/9/2019 7:41 pm
Coming up at 8 pm. I probably won't watch it until the end but I'll check out how the Yanks in the game do. Really enjoyed Alonso's win in the HR Derby last night - not normally a fan of that event, but it held my interest last night. Vlad Jr of course is a beast as well, who will have to be reckoned with.
1-2-3 for Verlander -

he's great when he's on. Interesting to see Gary catching him.
Joe Bucks and idiot

Did you hear him when Freeman was talking to Gary and Buck goes he probably doesn’t understand you. Gary knows english

down the LF line and scores on an IF single from 3rd.
Only criticism of Torres  
section125 : 7/9/2019 9:44 pm : link
is swinging at balls in his eyes and sometimes he even gets those. But he needs to layoff those.
All-Star game.

Yup. 1 game ends the debate

Not the 4-5 seasons of a big jump in HRs and a study proving changes in ball composition

Ignoring the ASG has a rotation of the best pitchers for 1IP each. That probably doesn't factor at all...

LMFAO at using 1 game as support, then ridiculing the other perspective

Without question. Nothing to do with the best pitchers in baseball pitching for both sides.

Was actually a reasonably good game, and only about 2:45 in game time.

As a Yankee fan, nice to see Tanaka and Chapman sharp...as long as they carry it over to the 2nd half
balls were juiced

during the "steroids" era too, but MLB is happy to let everyone think the spike in offense was entirely due to pure malevolence by individual players

Good call Stan. I mean at the end of the day, it all comes down to winning it all, correct? If you take a look at the last 10 years, the NL has won 5 times and the AL has won 5 times.

HAHA! Where I went to school, results have 7-3 AL last 10 years and 14-3 last 17. What school did you go to? The one where Speedy went to?

So you went to Clown college? Only in Stan's world (or school), would an exhibition game be the barometer of which league is better. Keep being you Stanley.
