    Brent Rooker - HR Derby

    ICYMI, Rooker competed in the MLB Home Run Derby last night. Hit 17 bombs in round 1 but lost the tie breaker to advance by a few inches.

    Thanks for representing the M over S, Rook! Hail State!

    A little controversy. Rooker was shorted two pitches and MLB said that he and Cal were going to sudden death before changing their mind.

    It is crazy that his pitcher actually ran out of balls with time left on the clock. How does that happen?

    Yeah, I'm afraid Rooker got screwed by the hot story of Cal and his record homerun pace. The tie breaker came out to be 0.75 of an inch difference. Really??? You telling me that they tracked those 2 homeruns to that accuracy?

    Yeah, he was screwed but the guy pitching to him didn't do him any favors. He seemed to throw several outside that Rooker had to take.
