The NL because all of the AL's top pitchers can't pitch.

 

 

I lol'd at the absurdity of that comment.

 

 

I think you misunderstood my comment.

 

Obviously they're all deserving, but I meant that the AL's true top pitchers are mostly unavailable. They're all either hurt or can't pitch because they pitched on Sunday.

 

The NL has more of their top pitchers ready to pitch and the NL's bullpen is much better, especially since the AL doesn't have Mariano Rivera.

Joe Buck: "I don't think he went."

Tim McCarver: "All check swings look like they go around on slow motion replay..."

...no, Ortiz went. Was... actually pretty clear on slomo.

 

Joe Buck sounds like he has a cold or something.

Also, with the exception of Hawk Harrelson announcing an opposing homer, I have never heard anyone make a home run sound so boring, with Fielder's shot.

It's that throat virus he contacted which is affecting Buck's voice.
