His career didn't end with that batted ball either.  He did pitch for a few more seasons.

Could have been one of the all-time greats.  Sad.

Dave Parker won the derby that year.  And he played in the NL...

Did you mean who hit the winning home run in that All Star game?

OK, I checked...the inaugural year of the Derby was 1985, Parker won the Derby and the NL won the game 6-1.  So I don't get your question.

I'll go with the greatest hitter ever, Ted Williams, if that's what you mean.

Parker won the individual title, but back then it was ultimately a team competition....AL vs NL.  The American League won the Home Run Derby.  Who hit the winning HR for the AL Home Run Derby team?

I'll guess, since he just got voted into the hall of fame...Jim Rice.

Trekkie already established the inaugural year of the Derby was 1985.  Care to revise, or is that your final answer?

You didn't piss me off at all.

Takes a lot more than that to get under my skin. 
Six Years in the Navy will do that do you.

This begins to shed some light, but by no means does it explain everything.
