* The Derby was first nationally televised by ESPN in 1993 on a
same-day delayed basis, with the first live telecast in 1998. Although
two hours were initially devoted to the telecast, it hasn't been
uncommon for the program to run over schedule. The 2006 through 2008
events, for example, lasted nearly three hours.

* Ratings/viewership for the MLB Home Run Derby since '98.
From: Tarkus on
I find this even pretty much unwatchable, so I didn't see it, but I
wonder if anyone knows how many times Chris Berman said the word "back"
during the contest? They played a series of his calls on the radio, and
I was about ready to pull my hair out. Many people were texting in,
saying they watched it with the volume muted.
