I think they are. The NL wins the HR contest.


But...will they win the actual game?

Do you mean the one with Wright, Upton, and Zimmerman? I grew up 30 min. from all those guys so they were pretty amazing until they split up and went to different schools.

Really? That's neat. Did you ever watch them?

If you knew then what you know now......

No I never got to see that team play sadly. I did see Wright play a lot when he was with the Tides for Triple A, and I saw B.J.'s younger brother Justin Upton play in high school. His team actually played against mine in the regional tournament. They killed us haha.
