It’s about to rain baseballs in Hotlanta.  The Home Run Derby is on now.  Mariners catcher and MLB home run leader Cal Raleigh, who has 38, is competing.  The field also includes Nationals left fielder James Wood, Twins center fielder Byron Buxton and Rays third baseman Junior Caminero.  Updates to come.

Raleigh beat Caminero in the finals, 18-15.

Who wants bonus baseball?  The MLB All-Star Game heading to its first-ever swing-off after the American League’s Steven Kwan tied the score in the ninth.  Updates to come.

UPDATE:  I may be proven wrong in the future, but that was fun.  Kyle Schwarber’s three homers delivered the win for the National League in the first All-Star Game to be decided by a swing-off as the NL tied the American League, 6-6, with the NL lifting the trophy on a home run swing-off tiebreaker, 4-3.
