Agreed, nobody goes upper deck in San Diego, nobody. I strongly believe that was hit farther than 488, at least 500 ft+. That upper deck is so high and far back from the fence it's basically unreachable but he went there.
@@ishikawa7077bro the most basic level of enjoying baseball is watching someone hit a baseball really far. Of course people like Schwarber and like watching him hit
Barry Bonds was just different man. Hot take: a lot of people talk about how aesthetically pleasing Ken Griffey Jr’s swing is but I think Barry’s was just as majestic. Got less pitches to hit than everyone else during his career, and punished mistakes more consistently than anybody else. The steroids added to his game for sure but his plate vision and discipline, mechanics, coupled with the steroids made him the most feared hitter in baseball from like 1998-2004.
I went to a Phils game in 2007. Adam Dunn was on the Reds at the time, and he hit a ball that looked like an infield popup that landed in the second deck in right center field. It didn’t even seem like he hit it hard at all, just straight up into the air.
I'm going to say this for what it's worth, McGwire and Sosa and Bonds, they helped bring baseball back to America's pastime in the 90's, while we could debate for hours weather or not they cheated, but those guys were entertaining and I believe worthy of the Hof.
Baseball is simply more exciting when there's more offense on display. People pan the Astros for the cheating scandal, but that shoot-out in Minute Maid Park was absolutely something to watch. A lights out pitcher is only interesting if you're sitting close to home plate, or you're watching on TV. The whole ballpark can appreciate a mammoth home run, or a speedster flying around the bases.
I always say everyone ate but yet only the players are hurt? Bud Selig in the HOF, La Russa a HOF manager, the tv contracts exploded, player contracts went up. We all enjoyed the Steroid era
Surprised the Bonds home run in Anaheim during the World Series didn't make the list. Jim Edmonds mouthing, "that's the farthest I've ever seen a ball hit"
Has Stanton ever NOT crushed a HR? I feel like every single HR I've ever seen him hit is either 450+ or just a frozen rope barely over the wall. Never just a long fly ball that happens to carry.
How did Pujols homer off of Brad Lidge in Game 5 2005 NLCS not make it on here? It was an absolute bomb, sent it to game 6, and crushed than Brad Lidge who at the time was throwing the nastiest slider in baseball.
Ohtani's HR's are impressive, but there could be an entire 20+ minute video of Bond's no doubt crushes alone. Not sure why only the NY one was features - 2002 world series was estimated at 500+ feet, not to mention the ridiculous number of moonshots at AT&T/PacBell Park
Mac had the quickest hands of any big guy. He would just flick his wrists and the ball would be long gone in no time. That was true from his rookie season on.
It FINALLY takes 4:00 before we get an absolute moonshot! I guess MLB needs some extra money since the staff is bored... Btw the video at 6:40 is where Bonds is obviously 'juiced up', but the MLB ignored it back then when drug testing wasn't enforced like it is now.
Dare I say that Shohei has the sweetest swing since Griffey Jr?! Has the sweet swing but also that very distinct crack of the bat of a monster power hitter. Best player in baseball right now hands down. The very definition of a 5 tool player
In Ken Burns' Baseball doc, Buck O'Neil describes a special sound that he'd only heard from the bat of Ruth, Gibson and Bo Jackson. The noise Ohtani creates with that bat must be the same.
MLB was at its lowest point in the mid to late 90's after the strike of 94. The Roid era saved the sport and the fans ate it up right down to McGwire and Sosa chasing Roger Maris’ single season HR record to Bonds being almost automatic belting baseballs at every AB. Everyone benefited from it. Even the fans! Now they shun those players who lied, admitted or to this day deny any wrongdoing. So they exclude them from the HOF. Everyone created this monster!
"This one is headed to New Jersey!" is one of the best calls of all time.
That was a signature of his. He would say bombs over the Green Monster were "Headed to New Hampshire."
Summer day in old Yankee stadium with Bonds at the plate and John Miller on the call, sounds great to me.
It was so natural!!! 😂
I was there, an absolute electric atmosphere
@@Salvatore1268Say what you will about Mr. Bonds, he was must see TV.
Shohei's home runs have a distinct CRACK to them. I could watch him hit all day. His form is flawless.
While I do agree. The first one that they showed was broadcast on Apple TV, and Apple TV and ESPN have boosted mics on the bats
It helps when theres about 10,000 empty seats, we wont be hearing much off the bat next year
Two shortest ones of the video
that is a sound you NEVER want to hear as a pitcher.
His swing is pure torque
7:35 I might be biased, but leaving the yard, clearing a street and landing ON another building is another level.
Glenallen Hill
9:01 love that loud sound
That’s why I love Sunday night baseball ❤
@corey5509 Stay off that crack pipe homie. 💊💨🥴
broke da damn sound barrier
8:27
Agreed bro, agreed…
“this ball went 493 feet”
“that’s it!?”
😂😂😂
4:12 the look on Harper’s face was priceless😅!
Glad to see Jim Thome on here. Just one of the most likeable guys in baseball.
In the Hall, but still underrated just as a person
Seeing a younger Charlie Manuel was great too, love both of those guys
They used the inferior call for that one though, Hammy's call on WTAM is an all-timer.
"That one will take TWO tape measures!"
I’m a Yankees fan and i can say that Thome was an absolute Powerhouse…
9:00
Good sound
Elly De La Cruz got my favorite home run call of all time lol "That ball had a family!"
Agreed, the delivery on that call was perfection
That will never not be funny!
i don't understand that at all 😭
Schwarbers 120 mph off the bat is unforgettable. Schwarber has hit alot more Homer's over Shohei's 450ft hit 😂
Nobody is doubting that Cat. You obviously didn't understand the context of the video you're watching. Homer
thats cool, not a once in a generation talent who hits and pitches, nobody besides 2016 cubs fans, and phillies fans care abt schwarber. cry abt it.
Agreed, nobody goes upper deck in San Diego, nobody. I strongly believe that was hit farther than 488, at least 500 ft+. That upper deck is so high and far back from the fence it's basically unreachable but he went there.

Thome will always be a favorite of mine! He had a swing that screamed POWAAAAH!!!
Shohei is MUST SEE TV!!Making people watch baseball again
@corey5509Why tf you lying?

I remember the homerun of Hill. His bat trajectory looked like a liner was hit then it landed on the building. Bomb
It didn't even look like he fully extended or gave it a full swing. That was the most casual-looking 480+-foot home run swing in history.
@@Moose6340 🎯
Ngl the sound of a shohei homerun may be the sweetest sound in all of sports. That bat crack is something so unique.
matt’s “and first pitch CRUSHING!!” over shohei’s hr is my serotonin
Not putting Adam Dunn’s 535 foot BOMB that landed in a different state is WILD
Not iconic enough, unfortunately
6:37 This one is heading to New Jersey!
If you have the ENTIRETY of Yankee Stadium giving you an ovation, you were something special.
Putting bonds in these videos but not putting him in the hall of fame is embarrassing
cheating to get into the hall of fame is harder than cheating to get into a video
not the social media people's fault
You're comparing a youtube video to the Hall of fame? Why? Lmao
@@DjDobleU809 that’s not what I’m doing, I’m saying that if the MLB is going to continue profiting off of Barry he needs to go into the hall
MLB doesn’t decide HOFers chief

Shohei's signature sound.
4:39 you know you're watching a monster when you hear, "stay fair, STAY FAIR."
This one is headed to New Jersey. That line always make me laugh out loud
A great call!
It was a great call
No Canseco in Toronto?! That was a bomb!

Regardless of if they did or didn't, I still believe they belong in the HOF, along with Pete Rose...
Barry Bonds bat speed is unreal. Its like a flash where the people in the stands can feel the wind from it.
An Ace pitcher (Showtime) hit the longest HR in 2023 ⚾️
6:45-that would be towards the eastern part of the Bronx. NJ is the opposite direction.
8:25 the way this ball travels 😯
9:01 the sound bro
6:47 Jon Miller with one of the best calls of MLB history “This one’s headed for New Jersey!”
Shohei the best!!
Surprised the Bonds home run in Anaheim during the World Series didn't make the list. Jim Edmonds mouthing, "that's the farthest I've ever seen a ball hit"
Tim salmon.. they do look alike though lol
4:11 thank you camera man for that great shot of Bryce 😂😂😂😂
This video isn't complete without Acuna's 3rd deck blast in Citi Field last year. 121 off the bat, an absolute blast.
Ohtanis swing makes me feel some type a way
Andres Galarraga in Miami should've made the list
Yordan World Series? Cecil Fielder Roof shots? Big Mac?
Cecil's roof shot went directly over my head! I was a young boy at that time. I believe Tettleton and Whitaker homered that game as well.
That Schwarber hr against Darvish was breathtaking to see live
Imo, Griffey and Bonds had the cleanest sweetest swings in the history of MLB
Both lefties, there's something about how level left handed batters swing.
Only difference between the two is that Griffey didn’t need steroids to get his accomplishments
@@TheAnswerToIs-uk5fqBarry had a better career even before he started juicing
Honorable mention for Manny Ramirez...his swing is so fluid and smooth
I hit 600ft HR’s on Wi baseball all the time
Shohei sounded like a damn assault rifle.
Has Stanton ever NOT crushed a HR? I feel like every single HR I've ever seen him hit is either 450+ or just a frozen rope barely over the wall. Never just a long fly ball that happens to carry.

Scrolled down for this. In fact, I came in CONVINCED it would be the very last clip. 🤣
It took Lidge like 3 years to finally get right after that moment
Giancarlo Stanton bombs, especially when he was a Marlin, used to be so much fun to watch!
as a padres fan, its soul crushing knowing the thumbnail with Harper was against them lol
@corey5509 if only lmao
HR celebrations are the best 😁
@corey5509 no way
Ohtani's HR's are impressive, but there could be an entire 20+ minute video of Bond's no doubt crushes alone. Not sure why only the NY one was features - 2002 world series was estimated at 500+ feet, not to mention the ridiculous number of moonshots at AT&T/PacBell Park
The sound of the bat when Ohtani belts one. CRACK!
Yes. You are so welcome
And Galarraga? Jajaja You are out of line without puting him here!
This video is missing the Ohtani HR in Seattle. Justin Upton's face after that is priceless.
Jorge Soler hit home run in Braves world series game 6 where is this video.
I'm sorry Reggie Jackson's All Star homer off the Detroit light tower wasn't here. That's the most impressive one I've seen.
Don't forget Bonds vs Percival all star game as well
No comments about Giancarlo Stanton's unique swing? So simple, seemingly effortless, line drive HRs.
I think the World Series homer Bonds hit against the Angels was crushed longer than the one you guys showed. 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Jason Giambi in Oakland. The cameraman couldn't even see it land
Glenallen Hill with the check swing too
List is incomplete without Schwarber’s bomb that is still on the scoreboard at Wrigley.
Judge is basically the biggest kid on the little league team, whenever he touches the ball it's just gonna fly
you know you're youtube elite when you get two un skippable ads before a video.
The Yordan Alvarez disrespect is insane
And acuna
No McGuire off Johnson and no bonds against the angels. Smh those are the longest home runs I’ve ever seen.
Mac had the quickest hands of any big guy. He would just flick his wrists and the ball would be long gone in no time. That was true from his rookie season on.
Theme’s bomb was 511’. There’s a plate on the concrete out center field marking where it landed. It’s amazing to stand on it and look at home plate😳
I like that how Othani gets the kabuto (samurai helmet) after he homered that ball
The ball sounds different coming off Stanton and Ohtani's bats.
I love watching the pitchers lol
The Bryce Harper surprised pikachu face is never not going to be funny to me
No clip of pujols sending lidge's pitch into orbit?
I get nervous for the people in the crowd any time Stanton hits a home run. He BEAMS them.
Gallo’s prime was insane

the sound on mazaras homer sent me to god
Jorge Soler absolutely smoking a ball over the train tracks in game 6 of the World Series doesn’t make the cut?
"First pitch swining" followed by "and first pitch CRUSHING" is one of those calls you don't forget about
This entire video could have been Adam Dunn dingers
Ohtani’s exit velocity looks like 200
In Ken Burns' Baseball doc, Buck O'Neil describes a special sound that he'd only heard from the bat of Ruth, Gibson and Bo Jackson. The noise Ohtani creates with that bat must be the same.
Please stop.
Barry's Yankee Stadium homer was the most epic.
Great Job!!! But none of these compare to Cecil Fielder's or Jose Canseco's Home Runs...not even close
@MLB - you're ruining the old clips by cropping/zooming them. For the old clips, 4:3 is okay.
Love seeing the cartoon jacked steroid era guys just MASHING.
0:30 traderrrrrrr 😂😂😂 the ball boy was a Yankee before but I guess due to the strict rules he couldn’t do it
MLB ... still the only major sports organization channel on YT that won't upload videos in HD.
Acuna hit one in LA last year that broke the record for hardest hit ball at that stadium i believe it was 121.3 mph and like 450ft or something.
The Angels really Fumbled
4:36 cj cron 504 feet, that sucker went.
The Bonds one was incredible I’ve never see a ball hit that far in that direction until Hamilton was popping the wall in the Old Yankees Stadium
big mac in seattle, big mac in Cleveland, sammy sosa 2002 home run derby.
7:05 even Yankee fans knew they just saw something special when Bonds massacred that ball. Had to stand & give it up for him
MLB was at its lowest point in the mid to late 90's after the strike of 94.

Show EV and Distance please! 🙏
Does anyone know when someone in the stands catches the home run hit if they get to keep the ball?
Cool game of Rounders.
I still wanna see Schwarber with a softball bat and stadium balls and see how far a ball really can go!
Damn no love for Alfonso Sorianos stare shots?
Elly not at 1!!!! Holy cow!!!!
Is there any video footage of Frank Howard hitting his home run out of Wrigley, busting out the window of a house across the street?
8:59 you dont need to see. just hear
