ohtani's 22nd came way way after 0 on the clock, with gambling involved that should matter, but apparently mlb doesn't care

I thought he got two more swings after #22. Hard to tell with this split screen thing where they're not tracking every ball.

This is much more fun than it used to be but damn I would not want a Sox guy up there taking dozens of hacks back to back for 3+ minutes. Just seems like an invitation to pull something. Ohtani was up there jacking bombs with arms-only swings. Insane.

Yeah the gamblers are the last people I'm worried about. Who the fucks gambles on a HR Derby?
I mean, they're literally advertising draftkings DURING the home run derby broadcast. But I'd say that a league that has spent the last few years trying to cater to gambling probably should care

Happy to see Ohtani get knocked out. Probably in the minority but much prefer Soto or Alonso to win it.

No hat Jauss is jarring and it took a bit to figure out why. When was the last time you saw a guy in a uniform without a hat pitching to a hitter in a uniform?
