It's not in Atlanta, it's in Denver -- get over it. Coors Field last hosted the AS Game in 1998
Shohei Ohtani vs. Max Scherzer, but more importantly, us vs. Joe Buck and John Smoltz
AL has won the last seven AS Games, and are 19-3-[seligshrug.jpg] in the past 23 contests
This is a pet peeve, and not aimed specifically at Joe Buck (who might not even have had anything to say about it), but I don't like it when the network guy comes in and takes the P. A. introductions away from the guy who's been doing the P. A. all year. He gets one chance to shine on the national stage, and the network comes in and takes it away from him.
Co-sign. We have to listen to Buck all damn game. The local PA guy deserves a moment in the spotlight.
Also, WTF did Buck think he was doing trying to talk to Hendriks while he was pitching!!??
Gawd, I hate the in-game interviews. And I hate the in-game, on-field interviews with the fire of a thousand suns.
Cuddyer jersey makes an appearance while the crowd cheers for Arenado.

Fort Myers scored eight in the second and leads Jupiter 8-1 in the third. Misael Urbina hit a grand slam. Brent Headrick has struck out three in two innings.
Vlad hit that ball very far.
Kyle Gibson starts the bottom of the third.
Ohtani gets two plate appearances before having a pinch hitter replace him.
This is well done. I wish MLB was as well run.
Nellie with the first pitch productive out
Blame the pitcher for not throwing harder.
Can we discuss how atrocious those ASG jerseys (especially for the NL) were??
Was discussed here back when they were rolled out a week or two ago
Universal dislike.
