Fun fact about Trout's ASG appearances:
First game hits a single
Second game a double
Third a triple
Fourth a home run
 
I know its meaningless, but I still think its cool

Actually stole my source from Reddit, lol

Crazy Random Fact:
 
Mike Trout led off his first All Star Game with a single, second with a double, third with a triple, and this one with a HR.
The All Star Game cycle.

Damn that was close. I love this new format!

That was legit exciting. I usually don't care for this shit unless an Angels player is in it but this is fun. If only Berman could shut up for like 2 hours.

I like this new setup. I'm always a fan of the HR Derby. Apart from Berman, of course.

I'm sure this has been brought up before but I was looking at all the milestones within Albert's reach and it's honestly pretty exciting. Obviously it isn't if you don't care but as someone who does, I found it pretty cool that:
 
He's just 361 RBI's away from passing Bonds on the all-time RBI list. Just 441 away from passing Cap Anson for 3rd all time on the RBI list (although A-Rod will eventually pass him pushing him back to 4th all time). With 6.5 years left on his contract both are very much within reach, and probably pretty likely.
 
He's just 422 hits away from 3000. After this year is over, he'll be closer to 300 away. This is pretty much a guarantee at this point. He has a fair shot at passing Molitor for 10th all time in hits, being just 742 hits away.
 
He's 99 doubles away from passing Biggio for 5th all time. I'd say this is all but a guarantee as well. He isn't terribly far off from Musial as well (3rd all time). If he averages 23 doubles a year for the rest of his career (including this year) he will pass him. He'll pass Rose if he averages 27 a year.
 
As far as homeruns go, he's 76 away from passing Thome for 7th all time. Barring any serious injuries, this is all but a guarantee. Hell he could be there by the end of 2017. He needs 124 to pass Mays for 5th all time. This will be difficult, but I think he will do it. I don't think he will pass Ruth (who will probably be passed by A-Rod) but it's not completely out of reach. My guess is he finishes just shy of 700.
 
So to recap, you have a guy who could end up being in the top 10 in hits, HR, RBI, and 2B by the time he retires. Once he passes Hank Aaron in doubles (56 away) he would be the only player in history who can say that. Of course, that may not end up happening, but it's pretty amazing that it's a real possibility.
 
Dude is a machine. Plain and simple.

I'm sorry Robert. I can completely relate. Pets our truly family members and it hurts when they're gone. My heart goes out to you and your family.

He's talking to the people watching the game at The Pump Room.

Great discussion on MLB Network stating that pitcher's elbow injuries went from just over 3,000 days lost in 2011 to over 8,000 days lost in 2014, costing over $300 million of pitchers salaries for lost days. Talk of going to 6 man rotations to give pitchers(especially the younger ones) the extra day of rest. With the tremendous investment that teams put in SP, it is something to consider.

Cain popped up as the Great Cornholio

NOTE:  Scoring for last night's game was revised as I missed the Pujols unassisted DP.  The revised scoring has been posted this morning at 10:15 am, and my master scoreboard adjusted accordingly.  Thanks to katrinab and Diaz15 for pointing out the missed DP!
 
Carry on!

I understand what you're saying but I don't think they are going away. As an avid participant on the board I'd rather have too much info than not enough. I personally worry more about having three threads about Hamilton than all the auto-articles.

Very classy San Diego.

My frustration is how awesome our food could be. Let's celebrate our so cal culture.
 
1. In N Out
2. REAL Mexican style street tacos
3. Bacon wrapped hot dogs
 
That would be top 5 stadium food. 

Wow, CJ is cruising

Howie Kendrick's fWAR must have plummeted.
 
Dipoto is a genius!
