That was absolutely horrific. Can't believe they let him sing the national anthem on live national television.

I kind of like all 8 guys. No rooting interest and no one to root against

maybe Pujols winning would be fun

the SSB rendition blows
I guess I'm too old to know who that singer was.

I too like all these dudes, but I'm pulling for Alonso or Schwarber.

Why do they say "3 minute round" and everyone then gets "30 bonus seconds". Isn't that just a 3:30 round?

ESPN already with shitty camera work, missing the ball flight on 2 drives.

Why could that guy get hit in the hand by a line drive?

Wait, why is the pitcher so close? Did they talk about this? It makes it so much easier to put it in the perfect spot.

Did the ESPN on field reporter just tell Rodriguez to talk to Judge in the camera circle instead of walking away? Let it unfold naturally, folks

These kids in the OF are more likely to get concussed than catch these balls.

Man, Seager scalded the ball. He must have had at least 10 just absolute perfect wicked line drives that did not leave the park

Starting to realize how great Rodriguez' pitcher was. Really fast and put it in the same spot every time, like the BP pitching equivalent of Pop a Shot.

Yeah maybe don’t have dad pitch, Corey. He was slow.

Then again, Seager ran outta gas late, so maybe it wouldn’t have mattered
