He was reaching over the plate to hit the ball. It looked like he was just trying to put it in the outfield as a sac fly. He must have a lot of power to pull an outside pitch and put it over the left field wall. I love the enthusiasm when he ran from third to home. He’s gonna be fun to watch this season.

Crazy that it went out of the park. Doesn't look like it would be possible just watching the bat hit the ball.

I had to be somewhere and was following along online. I haven’t seen it.
Wow! It looked effortless!

Yeah, never trust those ball tracker programs.

I was watching a college baseball game once and a guy hit one dead center that was caught just shy of the wall. The tracker said it went 404 feet. The centerfield wall said 398. Ummm someone is lying.
That ball went probably 355ish. Still very impressive considering he didn’t go with the pitch to right field.

He must have been channeling Henry Aaron with that flick of the wrists. Normally

a swing like that is a weak fly ball out, short of the warning track. (Or the "rise" at DKS, since we don't HAVE a warning track.)
