The 2022 Home Run Derby takes place tonight at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. Although All Star starting outfielder Joc Pederson was invited, he had to decline for health reasons. So the San Francisco Giants will once again not have a contestant in the event for the 18th consecutive year, since Barry Bonds last appeared in 2004
But that doesn’t mean it won’t be a fun event to watch. This year’s event features some of the most exciting names in the game.
The player to watch will be Pete Alonso, who is hoping to become the first player to win three consecutive derbies.
