A home run derby bracket is a type of tournament structure used to determine the winner of a home run derby, a baseball competition where players compete to hit the most home runs. In a home run derby bracket, players are seeded based on their past performance or other criteria, and they compete in a single-elimination tournament, with the winner of each matchup advancing to the next round until a final winner is crowned.
Home run derby brackets are a popular format for home run derbies, as they provide a fair and exciting way to determine a winner. They are also relatively easy to set up and administer, which makes them a popular choice for organizers of home run derbies. One of the key developments in the history of home run derby brackets was the introduction of the double-elimination format, which allows players who lose their first matchup to continue competing in the tournament.
