Home Run Derby 2013: AL Roster
By Josh Sanchez
New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano selected the representatives for the American League in the 2013 Home Run Derby, and there was one name that surprised no one. While Cano put together a solid squad, it will bill Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis that everyone will have their eyes on.
Davis comes in to the all-star break with 37 home runs, a major league record, and he will be looking to put on a show for the fans at Citi Field.
