A thletics slugger Brent Rooker put on a show in Monday's Home Run Derby, slugging 17 home runs as the second participant and being the one that had to set the bar for the six batters that would swing after him. Three would clear his bar, two would fall short, and Cal Raleigh would end up with 17 of his own.

Raleigh and Athletics star Brent Rooker both hit 17 home runs in the first round at Truist Park. Both had hit their longest home run at 471 feet. Rather than a swing-off to break the tie, MLB turned to the microscope, finding that Raleigh's homer traveled 470.62 feet, compared to Rooker's 470.54 feet.
