Juan Soto beats out Julio Rodriguez to win HRDerby
National League all-star Juan Soto of the Washington Nationals bats during the Home Run Derby, July 18, 2022, in Los Angeles. Juan Soto bet heavily on his own talent and health by turning down a massive, long-term contract extension from the Washington Nationals.
“It feels amazing. It feels tiring,” said Soto, a reserve on the NL All-Star team for Tuesday's Midsummer Classic. “I just tried to concentrate to square off the balls, because I know I have the power.” “What did I show the fans? Who I am,” said Rodríguez, who made his big league debut on April 8 and hit his first career homer on May 1. “A little bit of my style, of who I am. I think they know a little bit now.”
“I’m a lone survivor,” Soto said with a laugh. “I’ve been going through all this stuff, and I’m still here standing up and with my chin up, all the time. And that shows you I can go through anything.” “In , I know all the people are really proud,” Soto said. “Since we all three were in the finals, three Dominicans, it just shows you, it's a win for the DR, so we feel pretty proud about it.”
