A new way to enjoy the Midsummer Classic.
We’re at the All-Star Break and tonight we’ll get to see some of our favorite current Cubs and some of our favorite former Cubs dazzle fans in Atlanta.
Last night’s Home Run Derby started off the festivities right with a lot of bombs and some unexpected events. But maybe nothing was as unexpected as this kiddo robbing Junior Caminero in the final round (Bluesky link):

That got me thinking “kiddo robs Junior Caminero of a home run” would be a great Bingo square, and well, you know where this is going.
BCB Baseball Bingo has generally been a game for the ESPN Sunday night game of the week when the Cubs were featured. But part of the reason that works so well for a bingo game is that it’s one time when all of us are watching the same thing. Tonight’s All-Star Game is another time where that’s true.
You know the drill: make it a blackout game for a challenge. Don’t make it a drinking game unless you’re trying to pass out.
