Man, it's good to see Prince Fielder hitting home runs again. 

The Milwaukee Brewers legend took part in the home run derby of the East-West Classic on Thursday, and he won in dominant fashion.

Fielder blasted six homers in just 10 swings, and they weren't cheap ones.

The East-West Classic was held at Birmingham's Rickwood Field as a tribute to the Negro Leagues All-Star Games, held on Juneteenth.

A rain delay held up the main action, but the derby delivered.

Jerry Hairston Jr. and Nick Swisher were among the other derby participants. They never stood a chance against Fielder.

Fielder, who was listed at 5-11 and 275 pounds in his playing career, slugged 319 homers and batted .283 in a prodigious MLB career.

He's 41 now, and hasn't played in MLB since 2016, but it sure looks like he could still hit at the highest level if he wanted to.
