'We will have staff on site monitoring traffic conditions, making adjustments in real time, as well as traffic control crews that are able to be out, boots on the ground, and make modifications to the roadways as needed as we go,' Drew Ressley, director of the Cobb Department of Transportation, told Channel 2 Action News.

[SIGN UP: WSB-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter] What happened at the Home Run Derby? What's the All-Star Game without the annual Home Run Derby? Sluggers from across the country tried hitting as many home runs as they could on Monday night. Ronald Acuña Jr. was initially set to Rep the A, but chose to sit out over injury concerns, so teammate Matt Olson picked up the bat. Advertisement The hometown hero knocked 15 pitches out of the park after struggling through the first few. Sadly, it was just short of moving him past the first round. But Atlanta still got to their feet and gave Olson a standing ovation. Oneil Cruz from the Pittsburgh Pirates tied the record for the longest homer hit during the Derby that didn't happen at Coors Field at 513 feet. But it was Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh who won the Home Run Derby, making him the first catcher in history to do so. Throughout the three rounds, Raleigh hit a total of 54 home runs.
