N-E-W-R-X-Plemming.com. Boy, the Home Run Derby last night was fun to watch.

Unless of course you lost money gambling on it. I did not realize this until I saw

a Darren Revels treat from Action Network and a couple of other items on

social media that more money is gambled on the home run derby than the all-star game itself.

That's news to me. I had no idea.

And so last night we had controversy for those that put down money and we are talking about millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars.

Kyle Swarber and Albert Pullholson round one.

Swarber was a big-time favorite.

Everybody was rooting for Alba-poolholz.

We saw the emotion on the field.

We get that.

Pull-holz beat Swarber in a swing-off. That's right, and Swarber seemed to be just fine with it.

But if you look at the clock, pull-hose's bonus time wrapped up before he hit number 13.

All right?

Plus the rule states that another pitch must not be made

until the previous ball has fallen. On that particular pitch, among others,

the ball was still in the air.

So what the hell is going on?
