Judge Tops Sano In Home Run Derby Finals

Judge, the second seed, faces another Marlin in the first round, first baseman Justin Bour (20 homers). Find out how to watch the Home Run Derby live streaming online free tonight if you can't park yourself in front of ESPN on a TV.

Sano beat Kansas City's Mike Moustakas 11-10 in the opening round, and the Yankees' Gary Sanchez topped Stanton 17-16.

Sanchez didn't disappoint, however, putting on a power display that included a 483 foot home run off the window panel in left field past the stands.

Aaron Judge made everyone stop and wonder in awe Monday night when he obliterated what any of us thought was possible in the Home Run Derby.

All is not lost for Stanton, as he will compete in Tuesday's All-Star Game in Miami as well. Scherzer, who becomes only the fifth pitcher to start All-Star Games for both leagues, is 10-5 with a 2.10 ERA and 173 strikeouts this season. In the final round, each batter has two timeouts - one for 45 seconds and another for 30 seconds.

Yankees sensation Aaron Judge used all of his 6-foot-7 frame to launch one long ball after another, until he became the first rookie to win the competition outright.

During his win last summer at Petco Park, Stanton set a HR Derby record by swatting a ridiculous 61 home runs. He has also won one World Series, one World Baseball Classic and one Home Run Derby.

There will be bounce houses, a climbing wall and patriotic activities for the kids including the Star Spangled Safety Event. A parade that steps off at noon gives way to music and activities throughout the day and leads up to fireworks at dusk.

Judge even elicited comparisons to Tiger Woods in the effortless fashion the 25-year-old New York Yankee slugged his way to a victory over Miguel Sano of the Minnesota Twins.

Cody Bellinger then advanced to the semis in dramatic fashion, hitting a homer in bonus time to knock out Charlie Blackmon.

"I had no pressure going into it", Judge said. Judge, however, almost hit that number before getting his 30-second bonus for one of his many 440+ foot homers.

Because of the exhaustion that may occur from swinging the bat that many times, a player can call one 45-second timeout to regain their strength during the first two rounds. Sano has hit.276 with 21 home runs and 62 RBI so far this season.

On Monday night, Judge took part in his first Home Run Derby and put on a show that captivated a national audience.

As a father myself, I have to admit I got a little misty eyed when I read about that.
