In May of 1963, Mickey Mantle hit a 734ft blast at Yankee Stadium that was a few feet short of leaving the park all together. To put that in perspective, at the height of his 1998 steroid usage Mark McGwire’s longest blast was a mere 545 feet. What a slacker…
Tonight’s Home Run Derby at Yankee Stadium starts at 8PM and the line-up lacks the punch of Prince Fielder and Ryan Howard, so chances are Mickey’s epic Yankee Stadium shot will not be challenged, but the event should still be fun to watch.
In any case, I have two ways to make tonight’s event even more exciting.
Betting money can make even the most boring events fun. My buddy Kevin came up with an extremely simple way to get some action on the contest amongst friends. Have everyone throw in $5 and pick a derby contestant out of a hat. Winner takes all. Simple, no skill involved and pays out immediately. Just hope that you don’t get a player from a team you despise because cheering for a hated player might not be worth the $30.
Not everyone is a gambling fiend like myself, so instead of throwing money around you can always do the Home Run Derby Drinking game as devised by HomerDerby.com.
The rules are very easy to follow and revolve heavily around the incoherent ramblings of Chris Berman and Joe Morgan on ESPN.

You thought the video of Chris Berman flipping out on the teleprompter a few weeks ago was hilarious? Wait until you see the most recent crop of Berman breakdowns to hit the net.
This is why Berman is my favorite ESPN host: he actually has a personality and seems like a down to earth, beer drinking, sports loving kind of guy - or maybe he’s just an overpaid diva. You be the judge and watch the latest videos after the jump. Read More »
