MLB Home Run Derby

Crack! There is no sound in the world quite like the crack of a ball on the sweet spot of a wooden bat swung by one of MLB’s premium sluggers as he clubs it high into the air and over the outfield fence. At just over an average of 2 per game, home runs are relatively rare occurrences in typical MLB games (of course, that’s a big part of what makes them so exciting and special.) In the MLB Home Run Derby, however, part of the annual MLB All-Star Week leading up to the MLB All-Star Game each July, MLB’s heaviest hitters gather together to treat baseball fans to an exhibition of pure home run power.

The MLB Home Run Derby is based on a very, very simple concept: hit more balls outta the park than anyone else! And you can be there to witness the 2024 MLB Home Run Derby in person. Get your 2024 MLB Home Run Derby tickets from TicketX today!

MLB Home Run Derby History
