 Annual Major League Baseball tradition back tonight. The annual precursor to the Major League Baseball All-Star Game, the Home Run Derby, will take place this evening at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, the home of the first-time reigning World Series champion Rangers, who will be represented by outfielder Adolis Garcia, one of eight players in the competition. A new format for this Home Run Derby. In the first round, instead of eight players competing in four separate one-on-one matchups, all eight will have three minutes or 40 pitches, whichever comes first.
