Serious question: Does anyone really watch the Homerun Derby anymore? Hasn't it become passe like the slam dunk contest in the NBA?

Dunn would probably be the first person in All-Star Homerun Derby history to strike out.

pretty sure he did
<I am efforting the youtube clip>

ETA: I don't think he swung and missed three times, if my questionable memory is correct I think he hit two foul balls and then missed one.

oh, I get it, only Reds fans are allowed to make fun of Dunn.

I see you're having a bad Monday morning, and can't take a joke.

I don't remember it perfectly either, but that would be excellent.
