Willson Contreras, who has hit 20 home runs this year, is the first Red Sox player to participate in the Home Run Derby since David Ortiz and Adrian Gonzalez back in 2011. He will attempt to beat other sluggers like Junior Caminero, Bryce Harper, Ben Rice and Kyle Schwarber.

This year, participants don't have to worry about a timer. Players will have 20 swings in Round 1 and 15 swings in Round 2 and the final round. The four players with the highest home run totals in the first round will advance to the semifinals and go head-to-head in order to determine the finalists and champion.

Home Run Derby 2026 live updates, highlights

9:46 p.m. ET: Caminero started things off with fifteen swings. He hit shots over 400 feet to start. Caminero ended with five home runs. 491 was the longest. 

9:41 p.m. ET: Contreras will take on Schwarber, while Caminero faces Walker. 

It will be Contreras, Caminero, Walker and Schwarber in contention for the trophy.

9:34 p.m. ET: After making things interesting. Harper ended his night with eight home runs. He is out. 

9:31 p.m. ET: Harper hit one over the batter's eye. He then hit his fourth 482 feet. With ten swings left, he had four home runs. It's looking unlikely he can beat Schwarber. 

9:28 p.m. ET: Harper is up next. Looks like only one member of the Phillies will make it to the next round. 

9:26 p.m. ET: Schwarber continued to hit massive shots. He had nine home runs with two swings left. He ended the first round with ten. Will he survive, or will Bryce Harper take his teammate out?

9:23 pm. ET: After missing a few, Schwarber started mashing home runs. They were short and sweet. He then hit a monster shot 414 feet, and another 451.

9:20 p.m. ET: Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber is next to a loud ovation. 

9:18 p.m. ET: Caminero ended his night with twelve home runs. 

9:17 p.m. ET: Caminero started crushing the ball over 470 feet. Some were line drives. He had eight home runs with eight swings left. One went 487 feet. He hit his tenth home run 479 feet. And his eleventh 478. 

9:12 p.m. ET: Junior Caminero, the runner-up from last year, is up next. 

9:09 p.m. ET: Rice struggled to start, with four home runs with seven swings left. His dad was not helping his cause. He ended his night with seven home runs. 

9:04 p.m. ET: Compared to normal Home Run Derby's, where the crowd cheers everything, the crowd in Philadelphia, majority Phillies fans, only cheer for Harper and Schwarber. Fascinating.

9:02 p.m. ET: Ben Rice of the Yankees is next. 

8:56 p.m. ET: Murakami started slow, just like Caglianone. He did start landing big shots to right. Murakami passed Caglianone with nine home runs. His run ended there. 

8:51 p.m. ET: White Sox phenom Munetaka Murakami is up next. He just got off the injured list. 

8:48 p.m. ET: His hot streak ended with eight home runs. 

8:47 p.m. ET: With his dad pitching to him, Caglianone struggled at first. With eleven pitches and only one home run, Caglianone started getting hot. He hit one to right field over 477 feet! He hit one over the batter's eye. Oh my! 

8:44 p.m. ET: Young royals player Jac Caglianone is up next. 

8:41 p.m. ET: After a slow start, Walker started crushing the balls. He was tinkering with his swing, which affected his performance. With two swings left, he hit two home runs. With the new rules, the round did not end. But he failed to keep the at-bat going. Walker tied Contreras with 13 home runs. 

8:37 p.m. ET: Jordan Walker was up next. The Cardinals hitter hit a few lasers to left field to start. Walker was patient with his swings to start. 

8:32 p.m. ET: With one swing left, Contreras had 13 home runs. His last shot didn't make it over the wall.

8:29 p.m. ET: Contreras barely missed a shot on his second pitch. Contreras made up for it with a second-deck shot. He hit his second shot over 440 feet. One shot went over 482 feet! Another one went 487 and then one went 470 feet. One went 490! 

8:24 p.m. ET: Here comes Contreras. He has 20 home runs on the year for the Red Sox. 

8:15 p.m. ET: As a reminder, there is a new format this year. They will revert back to a swing-based format, rather than a timer.

8:11 p.m. ET: Rachael Colman of the U.S. Navy sings the National Anthem. 

8:08 p.m. ET: As expected, Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper got the loudest ovations. 

8:06 p.m. ET: Willson Contreras came out to massive boos and he embraced it. 

8:03 p.m. ET: Boxing's Michael Buffer kicks things off, getting the crowd hyped for the expected action. 

8 p.m. ET: Here we go! The Home Run Derby has begun! 

6 p.m. ET: Here is the official order for the first round of the Derby. Willson Contreras kicks things off on Netflix, while Bryce Harper will go last.
