It's the 3rd longest homerun this season at 473 feet.

He's doing this 500 feet above sea level.

The next two were hit in Colorado, in the mile high air.

Ohtani has one of those, at 476 feet and was the furthest this season until today.

Then today this happened...

One more stat.

This is the second longest HR in Dodger stadium since 2015, the Statcast era where metrics track the flight of the ball.

Ginacarlo Stanton hit one 475 feet in 2015, which is the longest.

Tremendous shot

In a game of specialists he's a modern day Babe Ruth; he can hit and pitch.

But it's a game of specialists now, so he can only do one.

Looks like he picked the right one.

wish he was on the yankees

I mentioned this is the third longest HR this season at 473 feet.

It's actually tied for third, Judge cracked one at Yankee Stadium that went 473 feet as well.
