Before Yoenis Cespedes made Citi Field his permanent home with the New York Mets, the Cuban slugger put on a show at the ballpark during the 2013 Home Run Derby as an Oakland Athletic.
Selected last by American League derby captain Robinson Cano, Cespedes unleashed an unforgettable first round that included 17 home runs, with a number of them ending up in the third deck.
Cespedes defeated then-Washington Nationals youngster Bryce Harper in the final round to secure the first Home Run Derby crown by an A's player since Mark McGwire in 1992.
