Home Run Derby

Apparently, Boston ain’t big anough for two hot, blonde sideline reporters.
Specifically, ESPN’s Erin Andrews and NESN’s Heidi Watney.

Here’s a screenshot from a recent Red Sox game at Fenway with the two sideline temptresses du jour in the same picture.

Whoa. That sure looks like Erin Andrews is checking out NESN reporter Heidi Watney’s behind.
And Andrews doesn’t look happy about it. She’s got that same “pissed off look” she gave Joba Chamberlain a few months back.

Watney seems to know something is up, too. Probably because her ass is burning up from the eye-lasers Andrews is firing at it.

Does ESPN’s Alpha Hottie sense some competition? Could this turn ugly when both of them go to interview/grab the bicep of Jason Varitek at an upcoming Sawx game?

Who ya got?

Okay … I have no idea whether this is a set-up or publicity stunt …

On Wednesday, 8/6/08, some online sports video site called Mouthpiece Sports was doing some interviews outside Wrigley Field.

Some blue-painted idiot decided to dump a Gatorade tub full of water on the head of a lovely blonde reporter who was interviewing people.

That young lady’s reaction makes me think that it she was not expecting it - she looks flabbergasted and at a complete loss for words (except for the “WTF” she mouths). Her sound guy seems pretty stunned too. Nice how her camera guy just keeps recording. Part of me still wonders if it was a setup. Gatorade tubs full of water don’t just sit at Clark and Addison.

The young lady has been identified as Molly Dapier. She was doing dome freelance work for Mouthpiece Sports and it’s not a publicity stunt. Deadspin confirmed all this for us (as I have a day job).

Watch out Erin Andrews … you might be next.

Hopefully there’s another video of that kid getting his ass thrown in jail. What the Hell is wrong with this new breed of Cub fans?

Be sure to check out Home Run Derby’s daily recap over at Yahoo’s Big League Stew

If you know the name of this blog, you’ll know that we here at Home Run Derby LOVE the Home Run Derby.  It’s the most wonderful day of the year.

• The best thing about the MLB Home Run Derby is that it’s all just fun. 
  No pretentiousness about the sanctity of the game. 
• No forced urgency about home-field advantage during the World Series. 
• Heck, even the incoherent ramblings of Chris Berman and Joe Morgan on ESPN can’t ruin Home Run Derby for me.

But if you can’t stand the ESPN telecast… maybe you need a little something to take the edge off … like Home Run Derby’s Second Annual Home Run Derby Drinking Game!! 

We did this last year for the Home Run Derby in San Francisco and it was so much fun I had to call in sick the next day.  My arm hurt from raising my glass so much. 

I’m always in need of a day off from work … so let’s do it again !! 

Short Version

• Put 911 on speed dial
• Take a drink every time Chris Berman says “Back” as in “Back-Back-Back”
• Take a drink every time Joe Morgan says something stupid.
• Wake up next week

Longer (and more fun) version

(more…)

It’s Jersey of the Week time!!

At a recent Angels vs Dodgers game … a young lady in the Dodger Stadium bleachers had a very unique way of showing support for her Dodgers. 

And it gave her some support right back.

It’s the Dodgers Coconut Baseball Bra !! 

And we’ve got video.

Nice Coconuts.  The handpainted LA on the baseballs is a nice touch.

• Cleverness - 8
• Originality - 7
• Understandability - 10

Okay - technically that is not “a Jersey” … but I don’t care.  Last week’s FUKUTHOME jersey was actually a T-Shirt. 

For you guys in the “sharp knees” crowd … get over it.  Real women have curves - and they’re proud of them.

Now if we could just get Erin Andrews to wear that to the Home Run Derby at Yankee Stadium in two weeks.

Home Run Derby would love your pics for Jersey of the Week.
