A YANKEE WIN AT LONDON’S HOME RUN DERBY X

All baseball fans united under the scorching British sun at Crystal Palace park to support some of the MLB’s finest teams. Celebrations were in order for all UK Yankee fans as the iconic New York team stole the show with an epic win against Boston Red Sox; making them the first official Home Run Derby X winners in history!

As you all know, baseball is one of the USA’s national treasures and it was fantastic to experience some stars and stripes in the UK. The MLB was able to convert many by-standers into enthusiasts as a slice of what makes baseball America’s favourite pass-time was introduced to Londoners. From the epic food, amazing activities for all ages, and brilliant entertainment to keep the atmosphere buzzing, Crystal Palace officially became the new hub for all your baseball fixings.

After a great tournament filled with surprises at every turn, we’re happy to say that summers in London will never be the same without a baseball game. Fanatics across Europe made their way to the final, giving them the perfect American dream dosage without the groggy 8-hour flight! Be prepared to see London covered with MLB merch from North to South, as even we can admit that we made a few jersey purchases ourselves! The Home Run Derby X was a great way to expose the newfound love for baseball across the country, with many of the UK’s own baseball teams tagging along to show support.
