The MLB Home Run Derby, one of the highlights of the All-Star break, returns to the home of the Texas Rangers in Arlington for the first time in almost 30 years. The Derby will be held Monday, July 15 (7 p.m. ET, ESPN, Fubo).
The last time the Rangers played host to the All-Star Game and Home Run Derby, Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez was Texas's catcher and Ken Griffey Jr. starred alongside him on a stacked American League squad. Frank Thomas edged Albert Belle in the Derby that year in a battle of mega-sluggers.
A lot has changed since the Ballpark in Arlington hosted that Derby in 1995, not just the name of the venue (it's now called Globe Life Field). For one, MLB has cracked down on PEDs, with the era of Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, and Sammy Sosa a distant memory.
Still, plenty of sluggers remain in the post-PED era. Pete Alonso, the only player not named Griffey or Yoennis Cespedes to win back-to-back Derbies, is back in the player pool. Marcell Ozuna, who's having an MVP-caliber season for the Braves, should be a popular pick to win. Young breakouts like Gunnar Henderson and Alec Bohm should also show up and show out.
