9:25 PM (ET): Matt Kemp was nearly shutout in Round One, hitting his only home run on a gold ball. I'm sure the Dodgers aren't too disappointed with this result. 9:18 PM: Prince Fielder's first round was highlighted by 448-foot and 454-foot direct splashdowns in right center field. He'll remain in the hunt after hitting 5. Carlos Gonzalez and Andrew McCutchen are the first eliminations from the derby after hitting only 4 apiece. 8:53 PM: Mark Trumbo just put on a show, hitting bombs off (and on the roof of) the Royals Hall of Fame building in left field, hitting the MLB Fan Cave slide in deep left center, and visiting the fountains just left of straight away center field. He finished the round with 7 overall. Colorado's Carlos Gonzalez is in danger of missing the cut after hitting only 4. 8:34 PM: Former Royal Carlos Beltran led off derby with a strong showing, connecting for 7 home runs. Toronto's Jose Bautista followed with 11, including 6 absolutely mammoth gold ball blasts. We're off to a very promising start. 8:22 PM: It appears Justin Verlander photobombed the pre-derby photo op .
