The MLB All-Star Break is off to a bang after the Home Run Derby kicked things off on Monday night.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Joc Pederson battled to the buzzer in their face-off round, then Pete Alonso won the whole thing in dramatic fashion.
The fun derby is a big win for MLB, which is pacing to have the most home runs ever in a season, especially when compared to the L the marketing department is taking as fans recognize the inclusion of a pair of players on All-Star signage which are not actual All-Stars this season.
Most notably, Bryce Harper has his own Phillies banner and is included with other players around Cleveland. Miami righty Caleb Smith is also depicted but is not representing Miami this week.
