The Home Run Derby is set to take place in Truist Park, home of the Braves, on Monday, July 14. We're exactly one week away. We know some of the field so far, but don't yet have the full eight-man group.
Hamilton has perhaps the most memorable Home Run Derby performance of all-time, when he hit 28 homers in the first round at Yankee Stadium in 2008, which was the record at the time for the most in a round in derby history. That included a stretch of 13-straight, electrifying the New York crowd in the final All-Star Game at the old Yankee Stadium.
Raleigh is three homers away from matching Barry Bonds’ overall record of 39 homers before an All-Star break, which the former San Francisco Giants slugger set in 2001.
