“Any time we get to come back to Kansas City, it’s always great,” Moustakas said. “It’s a home away from home for us. We love being there. Being around the people, being in the city, it’s always fun for us.”
Hosmer, Moustakas, Lorenzo Cain, Alex Gordon and Ben Zobrist are participating Saturday in hopes of mashing dingers and earning a spot in this year’s finals in Salt Lake City. It’s a team-based Derby: Each player gets one at-bat for 2 1/2 minutes. During the at-bat, the opposing team is in the outfield.
