Kaenon Polarized

Kaenon players stood out at the All-Star Game last week, wearing a variety of Kaenon styles.

Los Angeles Dodgers Outfielder Andre Ethier wearing Burnet Black G12 during the All-Star Game, and below during the home run derby the day prior.

Hanley Ramirez wearing Klay Matte Black G12 during warm ups, and below during the Home Run Derby where he finished 2nd, making it exciting. Ramirez was on target with nine in round one and 12 more the ensuing round, but he belted just five in the final round to finish behind Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz.

Corey Hart wearing Kore M G12 during the Home Run Derby. Hart hit the most home runs in the first round with 13, but then had to wait nearly 1 1/2 hours for his turn in the second round and was shut out. Because the homers from the first and second rounds were totaled to determine the final two participants, Hart was eliminated.

Kaenon Polarized players were selected by the fans and respective managers Sunday to the All-Star game to be held in Anaheim on July 13^th.

Voted in by the fans and starting for the National League will be the Los Angeles Dodgers’ outfielder Andre Ethier, who wears Beacon Matte Black G12 and Soft Kore Metallic Black G12. Ethier will be making is first appearance on the All-Star roster. 

He’s joined by National League’s starting short stop Hanley Ramirez (Hard Kore Tobacco G12). In the American League, the Seattle Mariner’s ace pitcher Cliff Lee, who favors Jetty, was voted on by his fellow players.

The All-Star Game will be televised nationally by FOX and around the world by Major League Baseball International. ESPN Radio will provide exclusive national radio play-by-play, while MLB.com will offer extensive online coverage.

Kaenon’s MLB pros are playing hard as the season is now in full swing. After being knocked out for a few weeks with a broken finger, the Dodgers’ Andre Ethier in Beacon, Matte Black, G12 lens is now back in action. Even with the forced break Ethier still leads in batting average, slugging percentage, and OPS.

His status atop the rate statistics is even more impressive when you consider Ethier is fifteen plate appearances shy of qualifying, yet still leads despite having fifteen artificial hitless at-bats added to his ledger.

In other stats news, Tampa Bay Rays team manager and Kaenon poster boy Joe Maddon (Segment, Black Chrome, G12 Freestyle Rx lens) leads the entire MLB (both leagues), in win percentages. Something to be said for having a crystal clear view of what your team is doing!

Kaenon player Andre Ethier and his fellow Dodger outfielder Matt Kemp were both presented with Silver Slugger awards they won for last seasons efforts in a pregame ceremony on Tuesday. The awards were presented by former Dodger Eric Karros.

“There are only nine guys’ names on that plaque every year … and to have two of us on the same team, it’s even more special,” Ethier said. “Hopefully, we get all three in the outfield this year.” Meaning he hopes that Manny Ramirez, who hit his first home run Tuesday, will get one this season too.

The Louisville Slugger Silver Slugger Awards are the top offensive honor in Major League Baseball. Coaches and managers of Major League teams vote for the players they feel are the best offensive producers at each position in the field in both the American and National Leagues. They base their selections on a combination of offensive statistics including batting average, on-base percentage, and slugging percentage, as well as the coaches’ and managers’ general impressions of a player’s overall offensive value. Managers and coaches are not allowed to vote for players on their own team.
