Jordan Walker Wins Home Run Derby, Secures $1 Million Prize

Jordan Walker, the St. Louis Cardinals’ young talent, delivered six consecutive home runs in the Home Run Derby final to outshine Kyle Schwarber.

That performance awarded him a $1 million prize. Runner‑up Schwarber took $500,000, while the remaining competitors received $150,000 each and a $100,000 bonus was available for the longest homer.

Walker’s earnings surpass his expected 2026 MLB salary.
