These commentators were extremely unhyped, hope we get some better ones next year, they almost bored me which shouldn't ever be the case for a HR derby.
Yoooo I was at the derby, the atmosphere and energy from the actual stadium was on another level. It was a big party/club at the stadium with 2 different DJs and music blasting. Bad Bunny even came out with the trophy, it was super lit at DS, these announcers blow the derby was super fun.
Might win it next year in Seattle who knows havent placed the wager yet since it's pretty obvious but so were the Bucs & Rams hosting & winning a fucken 5 year old could've predicted.
I know Soto won but Rodriguez performance was way better. 81 home runs to 53 home runs. I consider the real winner to be Rodriguez. I would rather hit 81 with no trophy than to hit 53 with the trophy.
@@johnre5342 that’s how it is in HR derby. The best doesn’t always win the derby. He did too much in the early rounds and didn’t have enough in him in the finals. It’s how you do in the final and Soto did better in the final. Soto saved himself enough energy to beat him. Don’t get me wrong, Rodriguez did really well but give credit to Soto too. He’s also one of the best hitters in the MLB at such a young age.
@@heronok240 I give him credit. He did win the final round thus taking home the trophy. But Rodriguez hitting over 30 hrs twice in one contest is very impressive and probably won't happen again.
Who on earth had the "brilliant " idea of shooting from behind the pitcher then split screening to a camera man desperately trying to follow the ball. Terrible!!
You weren't there if not you wouldn't be saying this. Watching the derby live is completely day and night to this broadcast. The stadium was super lit.
I don't like this new format. The 10 out format made every swing important unlike this timer based format. Less exciting to watch. Also, the commentary couldn't be any more boring.
There is a point when your just buying wins, which makes the whole thing pointless. The dodgers are there. Kinda like how cheating makes the game pointless
I'm not complaining about the winner, so don't take it that way. I think they need to change the method of how they did it. In order to be able to have a true winner to decide which team gets home field advantage, there has to be a fair way to choose. Ending up like we did this time with 2 American League players won't do it. The same would be true if it would have been 2 National league players. I think we should have all the American League players play each other and all the National League players play each other until we get to the final round. That way it will end up with a National League player and an American League player playing each other; which would most definitely allow for a fair way to decide which team gets home field advantage.
@@thekiid3 I rather see less HRs and a more entertaining Home Run Derby. The MLB should consider a pitching machine and award points based on where the ball is hit in the stadium. It should be a skills competition sort of like how the NFL does the Pro Bowl. I think it’ll be a little more entertaining. My thing is it doesn’t hurt to try something different. It doesn’t work out that’s okay.
I'm so happy for juan soto, he never gives up 🇩🇴🇩🇴
He's not worth 440 million dollars
@@darryldon2693 Never
@@darryldon2693 he is one of the best in the game and if you consider inflation 440 millions is like 350 millions a year ago
@@darryldon2693 440 million for his entire career yes
I'm gonna miss this guy so much.

Absolutely, we need the announcers of the 2019 derby back

Life with cell phones, make amusing things less entertaining
They talked "Buisness" the whole derby and it was annoying
Right! thats not what was said at 12:25 smh. they were terrible
I’m so happy for Juan Soto and my Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 I’m proud you Juan Soto.. TU ERE’ El MEJOR(manager voice)
Bro I can’t say how much I love Soto
I'm not a Nationals fan, but congratulations Juan Soto for winning the 2022 edition of the Home Run Derby!!!!!!
13:49 Que lindooo: Vamo allá,,,,,, Tu eres el mejor.
Congratulations Soto🔥⚾🔥⚾🔥⚾🔥⚾🔥 You Made Us Nats Fans Proud!!!!! 😎
He gone
Just like the Dominican Republic!
Congratulations Juan Soto Well Deserved
Welcome to San Diego Juan!
Puro poder💪🏻💪🏻
dude has always been clutch
Soto swing is so perfect imo
Dodger Stadium was packed!
Let's go Juan SOTO
Aaaah reminds of that great Dodger Yasiel Puig's awesome performance, he tied me that year with ZERO!!
Juan Soto 💪💪💪💪
Who you have as your Pitcher makes a huge difference as to how many Home Runs you hit
Thats true ..you need to have chemestry with your pitcher
This need to happen at the beginning or end of the season, so everyone can participate without being worried of getting injuries chasing a ring
How do you get an injury in a home run derby?
@@nevermindme8922 im assuming he means some players were injured and couldn't participate in the derby..
@@nevermindme8922they hurt their arm a lot
Tradition
@@Sweet--Richard.4981 ?
Impressive. Great baseball weather, and ice cold beer.
I think Rodriguez did much better in the earlier rounds disappointed that he didnt win
Might win it next year in Seattle who knows havent placed the wager yet since it's pretty obvious but so were the Bucs & Rams hosting & winning a fucken 5 year old could've predicted.
The fans were hyped!! Haha
El mejor de República dominicana
Like Judge, Soto homers to all field in home run derby.
sooooooooooooo good
good job Juan
Did y’all hear the voice crack at 3:28
Haha, yup
We want Mike Trout to be in the next derby. He hasn’t been in one
#PlatanoPower from DR. ,🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴💪🏻👍🏻👏🙏🏻🙌🏻🍷
🇩🇴Dominican born🇩🇴
Juan Soto remember his only 23 year's old
15 year's 435 million dollars is not enough. 10 year's 575 million dollars to start.
Washington is not going to be a winning team for a long time so if he wants to win now he won't re-sign with them
Dodgers are dumb enough to do it
I know Soto won but Rodriguez performance was way better. 81 home runs to 53 home runs. I consider the real winner to be Rodriguez. I would rather hit 81 with no trophy than to hit 53 with the trophy.
Damn you sound a bit salty
@@heronok240 I don't care but they make such a big deal about winning the derby. The guy that didn't win was better. That's all I said.

Lomas doro que tiene la MLB
As a Montrealer I hate the Call the National Expo's
The Dominicans can play some baseball!
What else they gonna do? Work on a sugar cane plantation?
Who on earth had the "brilliant " idea of shooting from behind the pitcher then split screening to a camera man desperately trying to follow the ball. Terrible!!
… what do you want them to do
He did Good! Hopefully he can also be in next years
This video is just Juan Soto
FULL highlights. How is that possible? These college educated kids today dont know Jack Squat!
Bro won like it was nothing
He actually struggled a bit to get going, he made a comeback in the final it looked like Rodriguez was going to win.
@@thekiid3 Rodriguez had the much better overall performance. 81-53. Not even close.
🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴💪💪💪💪💪
This isn’t more exciting than the dunk contest
You weren't there if not you wouldn't be saying this. Watching the derby live is completely day and night to this broadcast. The stadium was super lit.
Dunk contest was poop last season
the format makes it less exciting to watch. If you watch the old 10 out format derbies, it's much better imo.
Wasn't this All-Star Game supposed to be in Atlanta, to make up for Manfred's wrongdoing last year?
Do they win a Bonus!
Imagine having to catch the home run derby smh, I'm an astro fan n that's embarrassing lol
SAN DIEGO

explain the 10 out format, i was confused on that. how does it work?
Juan Soto x Dodgers Stadium = Magic! Soto future Dodger?

Julio shoulda won
Should baseball use a pitching machine for the home run derby?
No
Not unless you want to see waayyy less homeruns

Cool for soto. But what a weak Homerun derby
🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
learn how to run the bases and play baseball.
Need chris berman on commentary not these two bores
Homerun Derby such a joke
How is it a joke bruh?? What else do you want 💀💀 its been like this for a long time and theres nothing wrong with it
You must be a yankee’s fan 😅

no-one cares + asked
Not bad for a 28 year old
