Home Run Derby

I was getting ready to kick off the second round of Home Run Derby’s MLB Mascot Brackets when I realized that the first round wasn’t complete … 

Somehow, a number one seed in the tournament didn’t get his matchup. 

Let’s right that wrong … with a showdown for the best baseball-headed mascot in the NL East … Ready … get set … VOTE!

First Round Mascot Bracket Results can be found HERE

#1 Mr. Met (New York Mets) vs #8 Homer the Brave (Atlanta Braves)

We here at Home Run Derby are big fans of the Milwaukee Brewers’ Racing Sausages (sponsored by Klement’s - we’re big fans of them too … Yum!)

• We seeded the Sausages #1 in our MLB Mascot Brackets (Round Two starts up next week)
• We exposed all the Sausage rip-offs around MLB
• We showed you the Sausages without their heads

But we had no idea they were so talented.  Because they can ski. 

Back on March 2, 2008, the Sausages were part of Wilmot Mountain’s Annual Winter Carnival.

Home Run Derby is proud to bring you your first look at video of the Famous Racing Sausages … On Skis …

The first round is drawing to a close …

Let’s finish up the Critter Bracket with some mascots who were made to run.

#1 The Racing Sausages (Brewers) vs. #8 Rangers Captain (Rangers)

(more…)

The Mascot brackets continue with a matchup of one of the best … and one of the worst.  From the Mammal Division …

#2 Stomper (Oakland A’s) vs. #7 D. Baxter the Bobcat (Arizona Diamondbacks)

White Sox Interactive has found the Youppi! vs Ribbie and Roobarb battle and has started voting early and often for R&R … so let’s give Youppi’s old team another chance to move on in the brackets …

It’s a feathery battle of two 2nd to last place team mascots!

#1 The Parrot (Pittsburgh Pirates) vs. #8 Screech (Washington Nationals)

Thanks to some Taoist support, BJ Birdy became the third of four #6 seeded MLB Mascot to knock off a #3 seed in our Mascot Brackets.  I guess the Bird wasn’t as popular as I thought he was.

Let’s see if a battle of retired MLB mascots in the Furrie Division will see another #6 Seed knock off the favorite …

#3 Youppi! (Montreal Expos) vs. #6 Ribbie and Roobarb (Chicago White Sox)

(more…)

Sluggerrr is well on his way to the second round, so let’s head to the Feather Division for a new matchup …

#3 The Bird (Baltimore Orioles) vs. #6 B.J. Birdy (Toronto Blue Jays)

(more…)

The mascot brackets return with a Feline throwdown - Time for a AL Central Catfight.

NO, not that kind of catfight.

#4 Sluggerrr (Kansas City Royals) vs #5 Paws (Detroit Tigers)

(more…)

Crazy Crab clawed Dinger into extinction, so it’s time for another First Round matchup. 

We head to the Primate Division, where Baseball’s resident zymurgist takes on some guys who are probably in your wallet.  Your vote will decide who moves on to face the Swinging Friar.

#3 Bernie Brewer (Milwaukee) vs #6 The Racing Presidents (Washington)
