This update is a couple days late – sorry about that.
We have a new team atop the Home Run Derby contest leaderboard … as Belichoke (139 HR) jumped from 4th place to the top spot after a 35-HR week. That’s the most HR in a week since $25 Down the Drain did it in week two of 2006. The Joba Rules (135 HR) fell to second place but maintained a comfortable lead over Oaktags (127 HR).
Second-best weeks went to Gluck Fu and Suck It with 29 HR. Gluck and Suck moved up into 4th and 6th Place. Worst week went to Blockheads and Ryan Express with 10 HR each. Good news for our resident bottom-feeder Go Yanks! who had 17 HR this week - that’s the same number of HR he tallied in the previous three weeks.
Stud of the week
Alfonso Soriano
Seven Home Runs. And that was in six games (he failed to go long on Sunday). Soriano catapulted Belichoke into the top spot and moved a number of the 13 teams who took him into contention.
Who’s Hot
- Ryan Braun (6 HR) – Hey look! One of Milwaukee’s big bats woke up. And got PAID.
- Lance Berkman (4 HR) – Was batting .399 after Sunday too. Move over Chipper?
- Adam Dunn (4 HR) – Dunn can’t wait to face the Indians again. He batted .400 with 3 HR against them.
