Todd Frazier Wins Home Run Derby In New Format, Demaryius Thomas’s Mom Released From Prison
BASEBALL
The new format for the Home Run Derby at the All-Star Game was a huge success. Major League Baseball decided to shorten the event due to a possibility of rain and to make the event more exciting. Each round was shortened to four minutes so it became important for the players to take every pitch (instead of waiting for the best one). The result was 159 home runs compared to 78 last year.  The Cincinnati Reds’ Todd Frazier won the contest.  The All-Star Game is scheduled for Tuesday evening 7:00 pm EST.

Demaryius Thomas’s mom, Katina Smith, is among the 46 inmates who will have their sentences commuted by President Obama.  Smith was arrested with her mother in 1999 for distributing crack cocaine.
