The 2009 Home Run Derby participants so far are:
Albert Pujols
Adrian Gonzalez
Ryan Howard
Prince Fielder
Nelson Cruz
Brandon Inge
Joe Mauer
I'm gonna predict that Pujols wins at home. The dude is a machine, and will hit homer after homer...

Jonathan Sanchez threw the first no-hitter in 2009 by no-hitting the Padres. He had 0 BB, and 11 strikeouts.
Why wasn't it a perfect game? Uribe made an error on a short hop in the 8th inning, and the batter reached base.
It was the 13th no-hitter in Giants' history.
Congratulations to Sanchez! He pitched an amazing performance!
