Jun 29, 2023 | 1:51 PM

Toronto Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will compete in the T-Mobile Home Run Derby during the All-Star festivities in Seattle on July 10.

It will be Guerrero’s second time competing in the event after he set a record with 91 home runs as a rookie in 2019.

Guerrero ultimately lost 23-22 to New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso in the derby final, however.

Seattle Mariners star Julio Rodriguez is the only other confirmed participant in the event so far.
