When Minnesota Twins center fielder Byron Buxton is on, few players in baseball are as exciting—and in 2025, he's been on in spades.
Buxton is slashing .270/.334/.544 with 20 home runs and 53 RBIs, and his power numbers have earned him an invitation to his first Home Run Derby next Monday in Cumberland, Ga. On Monday, Buxton offered Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press an adorable account of his son Brixton's plans for the event.
