    Nice job. Utley and his big left handed swing let me down (despite it being 314 in LF).
    Phil Wenneck: The man purse. You actually gonna wear that or are you just fuckin' with me?
    Alan Garner: It's where I keep all my things. Get a lot of compliments on this. Plus it's not a purse, it's called a satchel. Indiana Jones wears one.

    I don't know. I think win you hit 28 home runs, you should win the home run derby.

    yeah, that sucks that it resets, but he also knew that and could have stopped in the first round at any point. They reset because there would be no drama in the finals when he's that far ahead. I'm not sure drama should trump performance though.

    They don't race 499 miles in Nascar, eliminate the non-lead lap people and start over (eliminating any leads built up). They don't reset golf scores after you make "the cut" in a tournament.

    I like incentives for not hitting home runs in a home run derby.
