Mariner's Cal Raleigh wins the 2025 T-Mobile Home Run Derby

Cal Raleigh made history as the first catcher to win the T-Mobile Home Run Derby, defeating 22-year-old Junior Caminero in the finals on Monday night. With his father pitching and his brother behind the plate, the man they call Big Dumper took home the title to follow up a torrid first half, during which he hit 38 home runs before the All-Star break.

Raleigh very nearly didn't make it out of the first round, finishing tied for fourth with Brent Rooker with 17 homers, but his longest dinger of the round surpassed Rooker's by about an inch -- 470.62 feet compared to Rooker's 470.54 -- allowing him to take the tiebreaker and move on.

Oneil Cruz also put on a show for the Atlanta crowd, launching a 513-foot blast that was tied for the longest non-Coors Field home run in Derby history, though the Pirates slugger was eliminated in the semifinals.
