Baseball Betting Lines

07/10/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Yankees' Nick Swisher and Arizona's Chris Young were named as the final two participants for this year's All-Star Home Run Derby, to be held Monday in Anaheim.

The outfield duo are both first-time All-Stars, and thus will be competing in their first home run derby. Swisher is replacing teammate Robinson Cano, who pulled out due to a back injury, while Young simply rounds out the National League participants.

Corey Hart of the Milwaukee Brewers, Matt Holliday of the St. Louis Cardinals and Florida's Hanley Ramirez were previously named to the NL squad.

The players to commit from the American League were Miguel Cabrera of the Detroit Tigers, David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox and Toronto's Vernon Wells.

Hart, Ramirez and Wells will also be in the competition for the first time. Ortiz was in the event from 2004-06, while Cabrera (2006) and Holliday (2007) also have experience.
