NextImg:White Sox’ Luis Robert Jr. to participate in Home Run Derby

White Sox center fielder Luis Robert Jr. was named to his first All-Star team on Sunday.

On Wednesday, the 25-year-old slugger announced that he will participate in Major League Baseball’s Home Run Derby at the All-Star festivities next week in Seattle.

Robert, who said previously that he did not want to participate in the Derby, obviously had a change of heart. He hit his 25th homer of the season in the Sox’ 4-3 loss to the Blue Jays Tuesday. The ball traveled 450 feet, the longest homer by a Sox hitter this season.

The home run competition from T-Mobile Park will be aired Monday on ESPN at 7 p.m. CT.

Here are the participants, with one more to be named: Two-time winner Pete Alonso, Mets ;

Randy Arozarena, Rays; Mookie Betts, Dodgers; Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Blue Jays; Julio Rodríguez, Mariners; Adley Rutschman, Orioles.

The bracket reveal is today on ESPN at 6 p.m. CT.
