Since 2016, MLB has used Statcast to track home run distance precisely, and by that official measure, Juan Soto’s 520-foot bomb at Coors Field in 2021 is the longest ever. But the Derby has been crushing baseballs since 1985, and the pre-Statcast era produced legendary estimated blasts, most famously Sammy Sosa’s reported 524-footer, that may…

Home Run Derby Rules Explained
For 2026, MLB is reverting to a swing-based format: instead of racing a timer, each hitter gets a set number of swings per round.
