	+100 internets if you get 1997. I was shocked to find this quiz didn't already exist. Perhaps the ASG MVPs will be here on Wednesday.

	I'm looking for Howard to put a handful over 500 ft. tonight.

	I got 1997 winner. But to be honest I guessed him hoping he would be there and he just happened to be '97. =D Great quiz, and I agree btroup, ALG MVP will either be tomorrow or Wednesday.

	'89 and '90 the winners had 3 HR's, but '05 had 41! That's crazy!

	I was actually thinking of submitting this as an idea after the derby tonight. It's going to be a little strange having this quiz amended within ten or so hours.

	SpicAndSpan:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 17:43 GMT		7 points
	In the beginning there was only one round. That was the case through at least 1994, when I attended.

	How many people guessed Josh Hamilton at first for 2008???

	GeoExpert:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 17:48 GMT		2 points
	There should be a quiz in which you name the players that have hit the most home runs in one derby. That way, Josh Hamilton will make an appearance.

	Yea i got '97 Tino, but thats because he's one of my favorite players of all time.

	Shouldn't that be, "Major League Baseball would like you to BELIEVE that no steroids were used in the making of this annual festivity." If only.

	tcr:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 18:14 GMT		0 points
	Can't say its just about steroids though because many players were using steroids as early as the mid 80s, like Canseco. That wouldn't really explain the ridiculously low numbers from 89 and 90

	Thank you Sporcle for giving me pause to reminisce about my 80's man-crush on ERIC EFFING DAVIS.

	btroup1:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 18:32 GMT		4 points
	While the roids have some impact, it should be noted that the gap between 3 and 41 isn't steroid driven. The rules have been tweaked several times to add rounds, change the number of outs, and even resetting HR totals after rounds.

	SPORKLER:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 18:35 GMT		3 points
	Sandburg is my favorite play of all time....I had no idea he won one. Although I'm thinking even I could have won it that year with 4. (JK, I can't hit it out of the infield.)

	JohnJF:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 18:47 GMT		2 points
	Also remember the format was different in the early years. It was essentially one round (in total, you got ten outs). As much as we nerds like to loudly proclaim "Steroids!" as though we'd be winning the derby if we were on the juice, that's not the entire case.

	draftace:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 19:00 GMT		1 point
	in 1989 Eric Davis tied Ruben Sierra. it should accept both answers.

	Got the bonus answer by accident from guessing Tim Raines.

	RyanUR:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 19:38 GMT		5 points
	It's amazing to see Cal Ripken with the same nubmer of homers as Mark McGwire on any list. Excellent.

	camilo9292:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 19:54 GMT		7 points
	I dont like that when you put Jr. you get Griffey and Cal Ripken

	Pbenevente:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 22:46 GMT		-1 points
	I can still see Tino hitting that game tying homer in the 2001 world series in game 4.

	capncokenojoke:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 23:17 GMT		0 points
	the home run derbys must have sucked early on when they only hit 3 -6 to win it

	RyanUR:	Jul 13th, 2009 at 23:59 GMT		2 points
	I can still see Tino's teammate Mariano Rivera choking in game 7.

	Nice job with the instant update!

	GeoExpert:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 03:04 GMT		1 point
	Wow, nice job Sporcle. You updated it withing the first minute. I knew you guys had it ready and typed it in right when the final ball landed in the grass.

	Exciting derby tonight, glad to see Sporcle so ready to update the quiz. A deserving win for Prince!

	Hamilton didn't win last year, so get over it and stop suggesting that another quiz be created or this one modified just to include him.

	I guess that the Dreaded Bat Off wasn't used in '86

	imprettygood:	Jul 15th, 2009 at 04:40 GMT		-1 points
	@jbear31 im guessing it was rained out so no one won it but thats just me

	sox_fan1468927:	Jul 15th, 2009 at 04:46 GMT		2 points
	Wow, 2008 Josh Hamilton hit more home runs in the first round than any player hit for the whole derby except the 2005 winner. That is impressive. Also, Wally Joyner had 20 home runs going into the All-Star break and then won the home run derby and proceeded to hit a total of TWO dingers the rest of the season.

	@Gators Didn't Berman call it a hit-off?

	OSUAero:	Jul 15th, 2009 at 05:23 GMT		-2 points
	I got Tino, surprisingly, but I was so fail on Tejada and Anderson. I am not old enough to remember before 1996 though.
