Alex Curry 7/26

For the last couple years, Alex has managed to keep her wardrobe pretty dry but hasn't had as much luck in the last week. She caught her second shower yesterday after Trout's grand game. Hector wasn't very successful as Mike managed to duck but he managed to empy part of the cooler on her. Could've been a lot worse for her though, as it looked like just water and caught mainly her back, missing her hair, skirt and heels for the most part.

Fortunately for her, the homestand ended and she can dry out after a couple splashings. Hopefully Hector and her bring us some more of the below photos next homestand.

Julia Morales 7/23

The Astros walk off and execute a miss of a shower at least from the picture below. Julia posted a photo of the bucket over her, looks like they emptied the rest on her. No luck finding videos, which is too bad if they stopped putting her interviews up on mlb.  She's the most fun interviewer to listen to. Earlier in the series there was another shower in the interview with Vince, looked like she may have caught some of that one as well, but no telling from the pictures.

Alex Curry 7/21

Alex has been exceptional the last couple years at dodging the cooler's shower. Here she didn't quite see Trout's bucket in time and caught some splash in the back. It looks like her heels took the brunt of it. I'm sure the dress dries/cleans fine, but do heels recover from a soaking like that? At least it was just water. 

Some great pictures show her and Pujols' contrasting reactions (stone cold poker face vs excited laugh/scream). The Angels are incredibly hot right now... maybe they'll get more practice at the interview soakings.

Emily Austen 7/11

The Rays pick up a win at home and Chris and David bring out the Gatorade. Emily's interview is interrupted by a dousing, leaving her and Jake dripping to finish the interview

At the All Star break, it's looking like its Emily's and AL teams that bring the coolers.

Joel didn't get far enough quick enough and got a splash in the back. He did manage to avoid the dousing the first game of the double header.

2015 Cooler All Stars

With the All Star rosters complete, who are the most likely to find a cooler to empty on a teammate?

Elvis Andrus earns a vote after several dousing's in the first half. Most memorable is when Emily caught more than her share.






Salvador doesn't need a walkoff, just a win to pull out the coolers. He doesn't mind if its not the Royal's broadcast's interview... no one is safe.




Chris Archer (shown getting the shower) David DeJesus and the Rays have pulled out the coolers on many wins as well to earn a spot in the 2015 All Star list.



Someone from the NL has to carry the cooler all star bucket so Yasiel gets it for his soakings that catch/target Dodgers and reporters

2015 Mid Year Awards



Nearing the all star break, we've made it through half of the games this season. Here's a look at how the awards half way through. Somehow it seems like things could continue to get wetter as the playoff races get hotter.

Top Single Cooler
Emily Jones was soaked by Elvis Andrus in what could live a long time as the worst reporter soaking during an interview
http://coolercupmlb.blogspot.com/2015/05/emily-jones-531.html

Most often soaked reporter
Unfortunately for some of Emily's white pants, she has caught a couple splashes in addition to the complete soaking

Reporter escape artist
Joel Goldberg has a quick move that keeps him safe for the most part, Salvador still got him a couple times.

Team Cooler Cup
Elvis' complete soaking of Emily and Josh paces them to the front at the half way point

Rangers 68.5-5
Royals 43.5-5
Dodgers 28.7
Astros 27.5
Red Sox 26

Reporter Cooler Cup
Emily's top cooler alone would put her in the lead but she has a couple splash insurance points.  A lot of walkoffs still to come, still anyone's game.

Andre Knott 7/1

Carrasco came within one strike and inches of a no hitter but pitched well enough to earn the Gatorade shower. Andre took it with him. Gatorade making a comeback to reclaim the Gatorade bath.
