Atlanta – Seattle mariners Star and MLB Home Run Leader Cal rale The first catcher to win the all-star home run darby as he dropped the young man Tampa Bay Rez Unnatural Junior Camanero In the final on Monday night to take the title home.
Raley scored 15 to 18 domestic runs of Caminero in the final round. He joined Kane Grife Junior as only two mericars to win the event.
“Usually the man who is leading the league in Homer does not win the whole thing,” Rale said. “This is stunning for me as someone else.”
Raley was picked by his father, Todd, former Tennessy coach and Western Carolina. His younger brother Tod Relie Junior caught.
“Just was great to do it with my family,” Rale said.
Rale was almost finished in round 1 when he and Brent Ruker 17 tied with domestic runs, but Meriners Catcher won the tiebreaker from the thinnest house of the margin as his longest domestic run traveled 470.61 feet for Ruker’s 470.53.
Camenero, Rale, Onil cruise And Buxton all moved beyond one round 1, with the least total in more than a decade after the Yankis Infielder Jazz Chisholm JROnly three killed.
“It was fun,” Chisholm later said. “I enjoyed it very much. I enjoyed every second. You can’t ask for a better feeling. I am still an all-star. I am still a hit in a home run darby. Who can ask better experience than this?”
Cruise created the main attraction of the first round when he blasted a 513 -foot domestic run, the longest of the incident. He is the sixth player to hit 500-plus feet Derby HR as Statecast started tracking it in 2016. He is only the second to do it outside the course field.
Cruise took an average of 447 feet in round 1, but the later player was defeated by Rale in the semi -finals when he was hit 19. Raley woke up the crowd when he hit both left and right during his first round, 10 from the left and one and seven from the right. He is the first switch hitter to win the event.
Meanwhile, Rooker expressed confusion in his final moments in round 1, where each player was given 40 pitches and domestic runs for 3:00 minutes.
Rooker said, “He told me that before I went there that I could take two pitches, but I did not know when he told me that there were already only 40 balls in the crate,” Rukar said. “So I took two pitches, which were not counted, but when we went to the round, there were only 38 left. So we came down with two pitches with five seconds and they are out of baseball.”
Raley led MLB with 38 regular season home runs.
