This thing won't be done until 2 am.

Frazier beat Stanton with one home run

Does Cespedes have trouble with the off speed stuff? I just can't figure out why he isn't one of the ten best hitters in baseball. Not because of the home run derby, but because the ball just thunders off his bad even if it's a single.

Frazier should ask to have his bat checked. Cespedes looks like he's hitting a golf ball.

Him and Stanton exchanging 450 foot rockets would have been tremendous. Frazier's a good story, but he has no chance.
