Cespedes Beats Harper To Win Home Run Derby 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Jul 16, 2013 3:56 am

Yoenis Cespedes put on a show at Citi Field on Monday night as he won the Home Run Derby rather easily.


Cespedes is the first player ever to win the derby without being named to the All-Star team.


The Oakland slugger beat Bryce Harper 9-8 in the final round, hitting the decisive home run with five outs to spare.


Cespedes hit 17 home runs in the first round, more than any other player managed through the first two rounds combined.
