2010 TD AMERITRADE College Home Run Derby Participants Announced

Ribera led the nation in 2010 with 27 regular-season blasts, while hitting .343 in 63 games as a junior first baseman for Fresno State. He also hit memorable home runs against Rice University and the University of Georgia during Fresno State's improbable national championship run in the 2008 College World Series.

Paolini, a sophomore second baseman, finished the 2010 season with 26 bombs, including four multi-homer games. The 2010 Collegiate Baseball Second-Team All-American and 2009 MAAC Rookie of the Year is playing for the Chatham A's in the prestigious Cape Cod League this summer.

Joining Ribera and Paolini in Omaha will be Matt Gaudet (Louisiana State University/Sr./DH), Matt Skole (Georgia Tech/Soph./IF) and Steven Felix (Troy University/Sr./C).

Gaudet finished the 2010 season with 19 dingers for the Bayou Bengals. Skole hit 18 home runs for the Yellow Jackets during his sophomore campaign, while Felix recorded 16 blasts as a senior.

The collegiate home run hitting competition will feature eight of the nation's premier power hitters facing off in an elimination-style format. Two more players will be announced to complete the field of eight later this week.

The 2010 TD AMERITRADE College Home Run Derby will also feature National Baseball Hall of Fame member Mike Schmidt and 2010 National Baseball Hall of Fame inductee Andre Dawson. Schmidt and Dawson will participate in several events throughout the day and will serve as honorary hitting coaches for Derby participants.

General admission tickets for the 2010 TD AMERITRADE College Home Run Derby are currently on sale for $5 and can be purchased at www.ticketmaster.com.
