Do you think Pujols checked in to see if it was possible for Lidge to pitch to him for the Derby??

Guerrero tops Rios in Home Run Derby final

SAN FRANCISCO — The Angels' Vladimir Guerrero won Home Run Derby at AT&T Park, defeating the Blue Jays' Alex Rios in the finals.

Guerrero needed just three home runs in the last round for the win after Rios, who had more coming into the final, hit just two in his turn.

St. Louis slugger Albert Pujols almost earned a shot to face Rios. He hit his last ball of the second round to the warning track, allowing Guerrero to keep a spot in the finals of Home Run Derby.

Rios had 17 homers through two rounds and Guerrero had 14. Pujols and Colorado's Matt Holliday both had 13 through two rounds.

Holliday, Guerrero and Rios all had five home runs in the first round. Minnesota's Justin Morneau and Pujols both hit four, but Pujols advanced to the second round with two homers in a bonus round.

Milwaukee's Prince Fielder and Philadelpia's Ryan Howard both had three and Detroit's Magglio Ordonez hit two.

Holliday replaced Florida's Miguel Cabrera earlier today.
