Editorial Review:Product Description:A series of filmed home run contests between two sluggers of the late 1950s/early 1960s, one National Leaguer, one American Leaguer. The batters had to swing at every pitch in the strike zone. Any called strike or batted ball that did not go for a home run was an out. (Three outs per inning.) The batter with the most runs at the end of nine innings won $2000. The loser got $1000. As an added incentive, any batter who hit three home runs in a row got a $500 bonus. Each consecutive home run after the first three in a row was worth an additional $500. While one hitter was at bat, the other sat in the press box with host Mark Scott and talked about both his and the other hitter's career. Filmed at Wrigley Field--home of the Pacific Coast League Los Angeles Angels--where the power alleys were a generous 345 feet from home plate.

Volume 2 of "Home Run Derby" was released on DVD on August 14, 2007, and it's an even better bargain than Volume 1, because the second volume has 9 total episodes (vs. eight on the first DVD).
This second "Home Run Derby" Digital Disc takes us back to 1959-1960, where we get to watch such big-league icons as Henry Aaron, Duke Snider, Eddie Mathews, Frank Robinson, and Al Kaline swinging for the Wrigley Field fences. (Wrigley Field in Los Angeles, California, that is.)

this is a must for baseball fans of past years...to see aaron, mantle, snider, mays, in their old uniforms and in the prime of their playing years is worth the cost. to make note of the different style of batting follow through will make you think. it's also funny to hear someone try to make a tv cast with a empty park sound like this is important game, even through it is hard not to laugh at the interviews with these baseball greats because you can see they really don't give 2 cents about what is ...
