Default All Star Week

Don't usually play this but saw this on offer and it looked good value:

Home run derby: Hamilton or Berkman to get the most home runs

In a field of rookies who are hitting for the first time, the tenptation is to swing at every ball and try to hit it out of the park. This is where experience comes into it and Berkman has done this before, coming runner up in his previous attempt. He has alot of power coming through his swing as well as his timing this year has been excellent.

The other possibility is Hamilton who has had a sensational year and is obviously the favourite. He has tremendous power in his arms and is the sentimental favourite given his problems in his personal life.

Pinnacle is offering either of these two to win against the rest of the field and looks very good value

Hamilton (the hare) sets a new record with 28 HR's in one round, then too tired to finish Morneau (the tortoise) off in the final. Just my luck.

Unlucky mate, crazy outcome considering Hamiltons effort in the opening round!

Should have just backed Morneau at the final stage, he was 12/1 with Stan James!

i think over 9,5 runs is here the right one as this one is an exhibition match.
