NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Chavez Young kept the trophy home, becoming the third consecutive Bahamain to win the Don’t Blink Home Run Derby in Paradise at Montague Beach yesterday.

The 27-year-old free-agent outfielder had to overcome former champs Josh Palacios of the Pittsburgh Pirates and BJ Murray in a three-way final to claim the 2024 title.

Don’t Blink has gone from a home run derby to a full-on celebration of the sport.

With the Players Alliance, a collective of black former players committed to growing the game aboard, look for Don’t Blink to keep on growing.
