Robinson Cano made sure his first trip to MLB's annual Home Run Derby would be a memorable one. In 2011, the New York Yankees second baseman went toe to toe with Boston Red Sox slugger Adrian Gonzalez in the final round. It took Cano a then-record 12 long balls to finish Gonzalez off and claim the trophy.
The rest of the field included Prince Fielder, David Ortiz, Matt Holliday, Jose Bautista, Rickie Weeks, and Matt Kemp.
