Wow! Hamilton is amazing
I've got goosebumps!

Certainly was!
Some of the those 500 foot bombs were amazing!
Although Berman comparing Hamilton's 28 HR to Ryan Howard's 28 HR at the break was a little silly.
I mean, it's batting practice off a 71 YO man! Although I did think it was extremely sweet that Hamilton brought him to throw to him.
AND, the story that Hamilton doesn't go out alone, even to get fast food, because he doesn't trust himself yet was chilling.

Somehow it seems unfair for the person who hits the most home runs overall not to win the contest, but that's what happened. No disrespect to Morneau but Hamilton should have received the trophy. He hit more home runs than anyone in the history of the competition (except Bobby Abreau). I also felt sorry for the fan for whom neither Morneau nor Hamilton could hit a single pitch for a home run and thus win a Tahoe hybrid for him.
