This kid while Junior Caminero is desperately trying to keep pace with Cal ‘The Big Dumper’ Raleigh at last night’s home run derby:
What a catch! Love the reactions from the other kids around him too: “WHAT ARE YOU DOING??”
Sorry, instincts took over. Excuse me while I make a name for myself at the All Star Game.

Honestly, can you imagine if this would have come down to ONE home run and THAT was the difference?? I think they credited Caminero with the home run anyway, but what a play.
And shoutout to Cal Raleigh, first Mariner to win the Derby since some guy named Griffey back in the 90’s!
PS: At the end of Chris Berman’s run as the play by play guy on the Derby, I was ready to move on from him. Ever since? I miss him every August. We’ve got commentators last night agonizing over launch angle degrees and exit velocity. Give me back Berman screaming ‘BACKBACKBACKBACKBACK’ like a lunatic after every long ball. I want Berman back. You win, universe.
