Home Run Derby Format

MLB has made a habit of changing around the Home Run Derby format in order to keep things fresh and they have done so once again this year.

Gone are the head-to-head matchups fans had begun to grow accustom to as the tournament will switch to and all eight hitters will be given the chance to hit as many home runs as possible within either three minutes or 40 pitches before then being given three bonus outs.

Players also earn a fourth bonus out with a 425-foot homer in bonus time.

The top four batters will then move on to the semifinals where they will be seeded 1-4 and face no no. 2 vs no. 3 and no.4 vs no.1.

Finally the last two batters will face off head-to-head in the finals which will be two minutes or 27 pitches, with one timeout.
