It might well be the first of many Derby appearances for Ronald Acuna Jr., who has taken the league by storm with his 21 home runs and helped give the Atlanta Braves a six-game lead in the National League East.
In case you aren’t aware, the MLB Home Run Derby will take place Monday night at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN. Acuna is set to face off against Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman Josh Bell in the first round.
The winner of the Home Run Derby will take home $1 million. And one lucky fan has a chance to win $250,000 by winning MLB.
