Cano, with his father Jose as his pitcher, smashed a 472-footer in the first round.
The left-hander matched his longest hit of the night to pull level at 11-11 with Gonzalez in the final and then added a 408-footer to right-centre field to clinch victory.
Gonzalez had tied a Derby final record by leading off with 11 homers, only for Cano to surpass the mark.

The event is held prior to the annual Major League Baseball All-Star Game each year.
This year's 'Mid-summer Classic' takes place on Tuesday night at the same venue.
