I guess it’s not every year that the All-Star game takes place at Yankee Stadium. It’s also the last time ever that the All-Star game will happen at the historic park. This could be a chance for not just Yankee fans, but all baseball fans to watch such a great event take place in one of the greatest baseball stadiums. Maybe for once, the best player in the game could put aside his ego and put on a show for the fans. But it won’t happen.

Rodriguez is the highest paid player in the game is worried about his swing. (Or so he says.) I personally think it’s because he’s never done well in the event – never finishing higher than sixth. A-Rod has a lot to learn from some of the guys that will participate. Sure, he’ll be in attendance, and maybe even helping out the ESPN commentators during the event, but it would be nice if he would suck it up for once and give the fans a thrill.

A-Rod to skip Home Run Derby

Rob’s caption read, “MAHONEY!?!” Obviously – it was referring to the “podium gag” from one of the Police Academy movies. So, Rob – you are this week’s winner. Make sure to check your email.

Make sure you check back next Friday for another caption contest and don’t miss the ‘Thursday 10′ on this year’s worst players in the majors.

Also – just a reminder that June 24 is the deadline to enter the State Farm Call Your Shot contest for a chance to actually “call the shot” at the All-Star Home Run Derby.
