Daly City- Former Giant Dustan Mohr captured this years Bunt Contest as he laid down a bunt down the third base line just keeping it fair to pass Diamond Backs third baseman Augie Ojeda.

Players that were not in the All-Star ballot radar took the field in some T-Ball field in Daly City Monday as the Home Run Derby was taking place. Crooked Street Press was among the media affiliates that were not allowed into AT&T Park so CSP was forced to cover the Bunt Contest with Major League scrubs.

Dustan Mohr, outfield for the Tampa Bay Devil Somethings, took the top spot over Ojeda, and the DH for the Seattle Mariners Ben Broussard took the third spot. Elementary school children shagged the balls as the MLB players had their personal hitting coaches lob the baseballs in for strikes so the players can bunt them.

CSP was not able to find anyone in the stands as no one was there to watch. This is a all time low for Crooked Street sports.
