    I just loved the all star game and loved watching it with my kid.

    Such a great crop of young stars in this game with more on the way.

    A bunch were missing too.

    What players was your kid most interested in watching?

    I went to bed once the Reds players were out and Ohtani was out, but I enjoyed what I saw [minus the AL unis] and will watch the rest of DVR.

    Crazy how many youngsters were there, that was really cool.  Loved that some of the players seemed to be having so much fun.

    He was always a huge Lindor fan.  Im an Indians fan and he kind of defaulted toward that and he plays SS.  He is 8, so he most often follows me at this point I guess.

    But now we have been to a bunch of Blue Jays games here and he loves the Jays.  He is obsessed with Bichette.  Also was pumped to see Guerrero Jr, Semien, and Hernandez.

    But he knows a lot of the guys there.  Likes Tatis, Ohtani, Machado, Freeman, Winker, Jose Ramirez, Scherzer, etc.  He loved the HR derby too and was pumped watching Alonso.

    That is awesome.
    My 7 year old knows zero baseball players, although he says he likes baseball. 
    He can tell you almost every guy on the starting grid by # of a NASCAR race, though.

    A lot of younger kids like Bichette.  I hope he gets more love from everyone else.  Solid player.

    The Lightning McQueen effect.
    Went through it a bit with my kid when he was similar age, he watched a little Nascar as a result, but never caught the bug like yours has.

    Yeah he still has Cars gear (swim trunks, backpack, etc) and when he grows up he wants to be a truck driver or race car driver.  :lol:.

    Those uniforms were hideous but I knew this was going to happen once MLB made Nike the official supplier.  I'm honestly surprised that they've only just now fucked up the All-Star uniforms! Can't believe they haven't fucked up half the teams already.

    ATL gets Joc. Not a bad trade on either end, really. Phils have to do something.

    I didn’t even notice.  Can’t take my eyes off those hideous uniforms…

    I didn't watch any of the game but did see some of the highlights. Yeah those uni's were some of the ugliest all star ones ever (I do think the NBA has most of the ugliest ones).
