There he is in the upper left, my boy, Mark Trumbo.

Cannot wait to see how Mark does in his his first All-Star Game and first Home Run Derby.

The last two Angels to participate in the Derby also won it: Garret Anderson in 2003 (he also won the All-Star Game MVP Award) and Vladimir Guerrero in 2007.  Troy Glaus failed to make it out of the first round in 2001 but Wally Joyner tied with Darrel Strawberry for the win in 1986.

Mark hit 7 in the first round and moves into the second. Had some good bombs:
1. 435'
2. 439'
3. 427'
4. 420'
5. 432'
6. 428'
7. 399'


UPDATE Round 2:
Six more and still alive!
