I’m not a big fan of the All-Star break and I actually spent my night binge-watching Stranger Things 3 rather than the Home Run Derby. I’ll usually represent from the sofa with a beer or two when Cubs players are involved, but have little appreciation for the annual contest otherwise. I heard Pete Alonso stole the show last night in a Derby that was allegedly historic.

If I’m being frank and just a little skeptical, the entire 2019 season has been a home run derby of sorts.
