 (5) OUTS per HR DERBY participant pitched by Pony commissioner Geoff Peterson. 

Outs are:

• Swing and misses

• Called strike(s)

• Any ball hit that does not go over the fence

HR contest will consist of (2) ROUNDS in some cases *(1) ROUND.

A parent (volunteer in the outfield) will mark the furthest hit ball (where it lands on a fly – not where it ends up after rolling on the ground) for each player (only 1 mark is needed per player = furthest mark).  If a ball is hit out of the park (HR) obviously no need to mark the out of the park distance.

IF no ball is hit out of the park (HR) then the top 2 distance players go to round #2.  Other players are eliminated.

*If a player hits one out of the park (HR) in round 1, that player can stop hitting as they will be automatically placed in the next (2nd) round.  If no other batter hits a HR in round #1 then said player would win the HR contest without needing around 2.  Said player can hit again in round 2 even though he already won Derby.

IF multiple players hit HRs out of the park then all HR players advance to the 2nd round. IF no one hits a HR in this 2nd round the contestant with furthest hit ball will win (parent in the field “marking” furthest distance(s))

After the home run contest is complete, we will begin the
ALL STAR games at approximately 1230
