Nobody thought Bobby Abreu would be that good at it either.
He did all right. Took a little bit to stop hitting fouls and just shorts but hit nearly all of them to left and got 21.
Just didnāt want Bohm to hit into any double plays. Iāll take thatā Robert Orr ( @NotTheBobbyOrr ) July 16, 2024

Bohm advances to the 2nd round
Only like 2 balls further than 450ft the whole night thus far ((perhaps Mercado should be pitching) but is this proof of a deader ball? I swear we have seen lots more than that in prior derbies.
Iām not a betting man, but this is one instance where I kind of wish I had taken a chance on Bohm.
Bohm is... the top seed.
but still not one of the top two betting faves
damn, it was right there for him
Usually donāt watch this thing, but was pulling for him to get to the finals. Sooo close
Trea hitting 3rd, Bryce clean-up, Alec 7th
It's cool that Skenes is starting but too bad neither of our guys could quite get that in the end.
Those uniforms are terrible, especially the American League
Agreed, awful. I wish they would just let the players wear their team uniforms like they do for the HR derby.
That doesnāt sell more uniforms. You obviously donāt understand their planā
Webb threw 31 pitches... cant make SF too happy
all 3 phillies hitters get a hit
Sanchez throws two pitches, gets two outs, and then is replaced.
I guess he reached his pitch count limit
I think Torey Lovullo is getting kickbacks from the sponsors to show more commercials by removing pitchers mid-inning.
