Monumental mashing: Ranking D.C.'s record 10 All-Star Game homers

WASHINGTON -- Don't be ashamed. It's OK to admit you like home runs. You can still go on YouTube and watch highlights of your favorite skinny dudes and slap-hitting middle infielders from the 1970s and '80s in their too-tight pullover jerseys and beltless pants swinging at 86-mph fastballs.
