If you are forced to pick a highlight from Tuesday night’s MLB All-Star Game, the monstrous home run from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. would have to win. The Toronto Blue Jays first baseman is 22. He’s one of the sport’s most luminous and promising stars. That blast nearly left Coors Field altogether, and it helped lift Guerrero to the game’s MVP award.
But I will take two plays – at least – ahead of that shot: a chopper off the bat of Rafael Devers in the second and a line drive off the bat of Kris Bryant in the eighth.
