Kyle Schwarber wins the All-Star Game for the National League on a home run swing-off!

Today’s word of the day is ‘electric’ as in All-Star Game as in swing-off as in MLB as in getting right! What a night for MLB! What a moment! Wow! Let’s break down the game and all the moments. From ABS to Hank Aaron tributes to dingers to Schwarbombs. LOVED IT! MLBPA executive director Tony Clark met with the media before the All-Star Game and he had very strong feelings about the salary cap idea. Woof. Collusion? GMAB! The Tampa Bay Rays are going to play games at home in the postseason… if it happens! Shocker! Review: Thunderbolts. Emmy nominations are out! NPPOD. Scottie Scheffler gave some responses to some questions before The Open Championship and whoa. The level of depth in his answers. The level of truth. It’s something you rarely see. It’s So You Wanna Talk to Samson Wednesday! Someone asked me three questions in one! What is the Angels draft strategy? Why do they seem to try and find prospects they can rush to the big leagues? Which union is the best in American sports? Someone asked me about Dontrelle Willis, arbitration, and if I play both sides of the arbitration argument. Which other league would I want to be president in? Is promotion/relegation better than what we have? Leadership. Let’s discuss leadership and the role it plays. What happens when a player gets traded or brought up? Who handles the moving? The expenses? Is the RSN issue going to be the end of iconic and longtime voices we hear?
