This was the highlight for me, absolutely insane performance from Rodriguez!!!

Wow! He not even seems to be exhausted, what a performance!

He’s a man of the people!! Legend

I saw Josh Hamilton now I saw Julio Rodriguez man what a time to be alive and whitness this WOW made respect to JROD or should I say Juuuuulioooo Rodriguez😉

I was there to see this and it was louder in there than what came thru on TV. Two straight years Julio steals the show, but doesn't win. He'll get one someday. Awesome show all around.

That was NUTS 😮😮 ENTER BEAST MODE JULIO!! 💪🏽🔥🔥 credit to PEÑA dishing up them perfect balls! straight fire 🔥

This guy is so exciting to watch. He makes it look so easy.

I was at the derby. The place was absolutely going crazy. Glad I got to witness it in person

Pitching is what matters in the derby, all these guys have perfected the power swing and could do it in their sleep..

I was there and it felt like an earthquake in there when Julio was up

I was there. No doubt one of the most jaw dropping experiences I've seen in person too. I remember at one point I was looking down at the kids trying to catch the balls that didn't cross the fence, they were just standing there for a good solid 30 seconds cause they knew any ball Julio hit was going over the fence.

There should be a special award just for most homeruns in a derby

I still prefer the old format where they had 10 outs to hit as many as they could. Now you can’t even really admire any of these as there are 2-3 balls in the air at a time.

Wow this kid is awesome!

This season in general has been a massive boon. Tv ratings up, attendance up, it's great to see.

Just got home from this. I'm a Phillies fan but I have a soft spot for the Mariners, not just because I live here now, but also because both our teams have a similar level of love and dedication despite the bad times being more common than the good. The atmosphere in that stadium during this was absolutely insane, pretty sure the place would've come apart if he actually won.

This definitely gave Bird showing up to the 3 point contest in his warmup suit 😂😂

What a show Julio 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Julio is the best up incoming home run hitter.

El 41 por Julio el 10 de Julio 🔥

41 is absolutely insane

One of the greatest performances in any homerun derby in history, this dude is a legend. Pete Alonso having a chance.

Give the coach a lot of credit for: 1. Throwing those pitches exactly where the catcher was setting up (where Julio wants it) 2. His rhythm pitching was excellent, if not perfect. It allowed for JRod and himself to keep their energy throughout the round, where some pitchers try and force the ball a little too fast and that throws off the batters balance and takes away energy. Well done Julio, I hope this is performance can jumpstart your second half this year and get you back to the high level of play we saw last year and know you are capable of performing at.

With All Eyez On Me playing, Julio is him.

What an atmosphere!!

Julio es Julio ⚾

No one giving the pitcher any credit lol. The dude was hitting the spot everytime and short armed it.

Is it just me, or am I the only one having a hard even seeing where the HRs go with the split screen?

Una bestia

I miss when they had to wait for it to land. Fast pitching is a huge problem. I’m all for more homers, and J Rod is a beast, but it nags me when fast pitching wins a round, like Harper in ‘18. Maybe I’m just a salty Schwarber fan, but you be the judge of that.
