JP and BMitch think MLB did a nice job with adding the swing off as the tiebreaker for the All Star Game.

00:00I got to be honest.

00:01Baseball, to me, is an old-fashioned sport that should stay old-fashioned.

00:06But when they had that tie in Milwaukee in the All-Star game,

00:09however many years ago that was, it was so terrible,

00:12and I think terrible for the game,

00:15that I'm glad they came up with another, you know, idea.

00:19Swing off.

00:21I liked it.

00:22I ended up liking it, man.

00:24Yeah.

00:25Listen, man.

00:25I understand people want to keep baseball as old as it's been,

00:31but everything changes.

00:33You got to catch up with the times,

00:34and that right there was a great, great addition.

00:36Well, I think baseball's been really smart to speed the game up.

00:40I'm talking regular season games, right?

00:42They're so much faster with the pitch clock and everything,

00:44and I think to go to the swing off at the end of the All-Star game,

00:50I mean, what is everybody like?

00:51The home run derby.

00:52And they had the right dude swinging off.

00:54That I am curious.

00:56So, the NL sent, like, legit bombers into the swing off in Schwarber,

01:03and I don't even think it got to Alonzo, right?

01:06And the AL did not, I would say.

01:12Rooker.

01:13Mistake.

01:14Rooker legit.

01:15The dude from the A's, I mean,

01:17he was in the home run derby the night before,

01:18but the dude they had in, like, the, not cleanup spot,

01:25but the third hitter for the AL, Aranda, I guess is the catcher,

01:28like, isn't really a power hitter.
