Kyle Schwarber advances to the next round of the Home Run Derby after hitting 10 home runs in Monday night’s first-round competition at his home ballpark. The Phillies slugger, who leads Major League Baseball in home runs, posts the total needed to move on. Alongside Schwarber, three other hitters also advance: Boston’s Willson Contreras, St. Louis’ Jordan Walker, and Tampa Bay’s Junior Caminero. In the same round, Bryce Harper attempts to qualify but hits eight home runs and does not advance. The reports agree that Harper is the final participant to bat in the round, finishing his performance after Schwarber’s group has already secured advancement spots. The next round will include Schwarber and the other qualified hitters, with Harper eliminated based on his eight-home-run total.
