Rules
This year, there’s still an element of one-on-one showdowns, but that won’t come into play until the semifinals. This year’s first round will have no predetermined seeds, and it will instead consist of all eight hitters competing, with the top four performers advancing to the semifinals. At that point, the format will shift to No. 1 vs. No. 4 and No. 2 vs. No. 3, but those seeds will solely be determined by the number of homers each player hit in the first round, so they will have nothing to do with regular season performance. Should there be a tie in terms of multiple players hitting the same number of home runs in the first round, the tiebreaker will be who had the longest home run hit in that round.
Bonus pitches are different both in terms of how they are acquired, and how long the bonus period lasts. Instead of getting an automatic 30 seconds of extra time, each player now gets bonus pitches up until they record three outs within that bonus period. Furthermore, if a player hits a home run of at least 425 feet within the bonus period, then the bonus period is extended to last until the player records his fourth out in that period. But it’s no longer the case that hitting especially far home runs during the regulation period leads to extra bonus time.
