Man Saved From 20-Foot Plunge At MLB Home Run Derby

It almost happened again. At last night’s Major League Baseball All-Star Home Run Derby, Keith Carmickle (plaid shorts, hanging over the rail) nearly fell 20 Ft. from the stands at Chase Field in Phoenix Arizona. His brother and friends managed to hold on, avoiding a potential tragedy. posted on July 12, 2011 at 10:08am EDT
