Did Alonso just grab a dude off the street to throw to him?

I swear I heard the story about his planned BP pitcher being injured last year too

It was some batter last year at least as I haven't watched a HR Derby in a long time before Julio last year
 
Do you think it’s awkward for Pete Alonso with all these dudes speaking español?
 
Pulling for RANDY here.
 
Bummer for Randy. Thought he was gonna do it.

He’s a baseball player. He’s probably used to it.

First time watching the Home Run Derby in awhile. That was fun. Wanted Randy or Vlad Jr and that’s what I got. Enjoyed the clips of Vlad Sr. back in the day.

Lol. Alonso is the only one out of 20 players to not have a favorable opinion.

The Athletic article on Immaculate Grid was good. That’s probably the best Wordle derivative I’ve seen. Looking forward to the NFL and NBA versions.
 
Alonso threw up weights during the middle of last year's HR derby. All I needed to know about that meathead


In other news... The Angels are reportedly open to listening to offers for Ohtani now

There is already an NFL one, but it's not as good. It only goes back to 1999, so no extra rarity points for remembering Norm Snead. Also they seem to think people memorize jersey numbers.

I found an NBA one. Duke was one of the axes so I need to find a better one.
