WOW ! what a 1st. round he put on in the home run derby tonight. That was the most amazing thing I have ever witnessed in my life. I can't imagine what it was like to be at Yankee stadium for that.

For those of you who don't know Josh Hamilton was a former# 1 draft pick out of high school but after a car accident and drug problems was out of baseball 3 years and one day turned his life around.He leads all of baseball with 95 RBI'S going into the all-star break.


but tonight he hit 28 Home runs ( a record )in the first round in the home run derby at Yankee stadium the most remarkable performance I have ever seen.

More amazing was the 71 year old pitcher throwing to him Clay Counsill who threw close to 100 pitches who has been throwing to Josh since legion ball.

Why isn't   there a movie about this talented outfielder ?
