Cal Raleigh Wins 2025 MLB Home Run Derby, Final Scores from Entire Bracket

No catcher had ever won the MLB Home Run Derby.

Until tonight.

After reaching the semifinal round by less than an inch, Cal Raleigh put on a clinic at the 2025 MLB Home Run Derby in Truist Park, Atlanta, hitting 18 home runs in a final-round thriller to narrowly defeat Rays’ third baseman Junior Caminero.

The Seattle Mariners' catcher, who entered the All-Star Break with one fewer home run (38) than Barry Bonds' record-high 39 in 2001, is 12 home runs away from becoming the first catcher in MLB history to hit 50 home runs in a single season.

From round-by-round results to Oneil Cruz's physics-defying home run, everything you need is below.
