It probably helps that the HR Derby is the only sports event going on during that time slot. During any non-finals NBA game, there's the NHL playoffs and the MLB regular season. So if you prefer hockey over other sports or your favorite baseball team is playing, you may watch that over Spurs vs. Warriors. But if you're a sports fan, what else are you going to watch on HR Derby Monday?

Excellent point. Also a lot of the baseball is dying talk comes from the fact that a much higher percentage of it's viewership comes from 30+ than the other major sports. shite soccer might actually be close to baseball in the 18-25 market
