People don’t realize how impressive Judge’s hr was. In New York elevation which is 34 ft compared to a mile high elevation. Judge could’ve hit that exact pitch 530+ feet
and Sano's homerun is just as impressive since Fenway has the lowest elevation of any ballpark, sucks that new york and the twins don't play the rockies often.
@@heathenmkeMaybe Williams was a little distracted ... Seeing how it was his first season back from 3 years of serving in WW2. What was Judge's excuse.
Dave Kingman hit one at Fenway in ‘77 when playing for the Yankees that went close to the lights on the pole in left center where Sano hit it. I never did see it come down, just went into the night.
I wish there was a way to measure the one Ted Simmons hit to left field in Philadelphia in ‘75 or ‘76. In my memory it was by far the hardest hit ball I ever saw. It seemed like it was still on the way up when it hit the seats, and reached the seats faster than any other.
I'm from Philly and that would be Veterans Stadium. Willie Stargell has the longest HR hit there. They marked the seat with a "S". Simmons slammed some as well...
I was a 16 year old baseball enthusiasts when I watched the 1989 ALCS game where Jose Canseco hit one into the upper deck and off of the big plexiglass window. That one measured 540 feet at Toronto's old Skydome 😳34 years later, and it's still the longest homer that I have ever seen.
He hit one in Tampa that probably would have broken records, but we’ll never know because of that dumb stadium. Multiple people said it was the hardest ball they’ve ever seen hit. Whatever happened to that guy?
I’m a Cubs fan who enjoyed the McGwire/Sosa chase. I’ll attest I’ve never seen anything like McGwire hitting BP. He was hitting balls on the roof of old Busch stadium and they were rolling off the back 🤯
The home run by Reggie Jackson in the 1971 All Star game in Detroit was a monster. As I recall, it almost left the park; ‘Reggie Jackson's famous home run at Tiger Stadium during the 1971 All-Star Game is thought to have traveled approximately 532 feet. Its distance would have been even greater had it not hit a light tower!’
The old numbers are not at all accurate. There is no way they could measure trajectory, ball speed, wind, angle, etc.. Past distance estimates are irrelevant. I remember hearing numbers like 600 ft back in the day. No effing way. These guys are fitter and stronger than ever and they seem to max out around 500 ft, give or take.
@@mplslawnguy3389 All those peripheral measurements are totally irrelevant...their is only one that matters, the distance. Even in those times there were at least two options for attaining the measurement, one being with a surveyors instrumentation.
As someone who is very familiar with Globe Life Field in Arlington, the Mazara home run was completely ridiculous. The restaurant up there is so far from home plate, the players look like ants. It boggles the mind how a ball can travel that distance.
Yea here is a statcast for you Mantle hitting the facade in right filed at Yankee Stadium in the 60s, long before juiced up balls and players, no one not even Mr. May A. Judge has ever done it.
yeah these are just recent history.... back in the day they hit them much farther. They used bigger longer heavier bats (a lot heavier), made of ash or hickory, which are harder than the maple bats used today. When sluggers connected with them they really took off. Pretty reliable estimates for hitters like Mantle, Mays, Reggie Jackson, Willie Stargell just to name a few, blasting shots well over 500 feet, probably in the 550-575ft range
I've been watching games at Fenway since 1988.. I can remember ONE homerun Manny Ramirez hit to left center that was similar to Sano's but it hit the top of the billboard... that might've been the longest Fenway homerun I've seen.
I remember watching an Adam Dunn home run compilation video about a year ago here on YT (in fact I think I saved it), it's incredible how far a lot of his home runs went, good grief...
Longest HR’s I ever watched were Mark McGwire during BP. He was hitting them on the roof of the upper deck at old Busch. Imagine a giant donut stadium with three levels. He was hitting them on the roof and they were rolling out of the stadium. Completely insane. Never seen anything like it. He hit a baseball like it was a golf ball.
That home run in Fenway was ridiculous. The dude hit it out of the ball park in center field. I remember in 1999 during the home run derby in Fenway with a juiced up McGwire and Sosa and I don’t think either of them hit any baseballs that far.
I’ve seen Jason Bay hit one over the end of the Monster near CF but not nearly as far as this one. Also, Manny’s home run that hit that light tower was insane but that was halfway to the foul pole at least.
I walk in a park that has several fields including a big one with a 250 foot fence. As I walk outside the fence with my dog, I look back at the plate and think "that's a pretty good shot to make it over this." These guys are hitting the ball twice... as.. far. The ball would still be rising when it made it this far.
These are no doubt very impressive. When Jose Canseco played for Oakland back in the late 80s, I saw more than one of his homers, clear the Center Field wall in Oakland on a near flat trajectory. Look at his homer in the first game of the 1988 World Series.
On May 16th, 1998 Mark McGwire hit a 545 foot HR at Busch Stadium. It hit off the post dispatch sign, so it was easy to measure. Would have to be top 5 ever
Canseco’s HR at the Skydome is longer than these. Probably couldn’t be measured because it was still rising when it hit the top seats of the upper deck
Cecil Fielder hit one completely out of County Stadium in Milwaukee. You could also include some of Harmon Killebrew's homers or Reggie Jackson's in the 71 All Star Game
Another one of his that went an amazing distance is the one he hit off the bottom of the scoreboard at Jack Murphy stadium...I've not heard of anyone else doing that there, nor have I seen footage of anyone else doing that. As for Yankee Stadium, there's footage out here on YT (at least there used to be) of Fred McGriff hitting one into the right field upper deck back in '86, good grief that thing was clobbered...
Wow, the topic of the longest home runs ever recorded by Statcast sounds absolutely thrilling! It's incredible to think about the power and skill needed to hit a baseball such distances. The blend of athleticism, technique, and strength required for such feats is truly a marvel. It's exciting to imagine the stadiums where these record-breaking home runs were hit, each one a unique moment in baseball history. What a great way to celebrate the amazing capabilities of athletes and the fascinating technology of Statcast that makes it possible to record these achievements! 🌟⚾💥
There used to be a sign out there in right field at the Arlington ballpark that said hit it here win a free suite, 501 feet. I remember thinking how ridiculous that was. Mazara hit it farther than that!
I went to the Ballpark At Arlington 1997 and remember that sign. It was on the roof over the 2nd deck. Mazara's was too much of a line drive to have hit onto the roof. If he launched it 5 to 10 degrees higher, however ...
@@coinbuyer-8605 I loved that ballpark from the first time I ever walked in it in 1995. It was a majestic looking thing inside and out. I've seen others criticize it for one reason or the other. The Texas heat was the big killer and I'm sure the reason for the new ballpark which by the way has the charm of an airline terminal or a shopping mall.
Babe Ruth is credited with a 575 ft homer. Micky Mantle - 565ft. I'm guessing there was no recording of those Home Runs. This video is an interesting look at what is the longest homer recorded. Of course, it is not without controversy. czcams.com/video/D5xXhoX6-W0/video.html One big part of measuring these modern homers is the confines of the stadiums. If the trajectory could be accurately computed, it seems logical that some of the homers shown would be well beyond the distance where the ball hit in the stadium.
Harmon Killebrew used to hit home runs well over 500 feet long. His longest recorded home run at the old Met Stadium was listed at 520 feet but was likely closer to 550 feet. He also hit one completely out of the old Tiger Stadium. He was not a big man either.
I hate to be a pooper of parties (because I'm also a Twins fan) but... anything before StatCast is pretty much dependent on stadium seat home run measurements being accurate, which... they often were not. Often stadium seat home run distances were calculated based on nothing more than the architectural drawings, which could differ by as much as 10 feet from the actual placement of the seats in the rows. So unfortunately, any home run distance taken before StatCast is likely to be an exaggeration.
I don't know about Comcast, but Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle hit the longest home runs in history! The two balls that Mantle hit which nearly went out of Yankee Stadium are estimated at possibly going 650bto 700 feet if they didn't hit the Facade.
Yeah nice shots but not even close to the Mick's drives. Add another 60 - 75 feet on multiple ones from # 7 plus some that during the day a few were so far they could only estimate them as there was no way to be 100% accurate
It is great we now have statcast. No more do people get to pass on guesses and exaggeration as fact. Like how many people try and claim Mickey Mantle among others hit 600 ft homeruns lol. Rest assured if Stanton and Judge in their heyday's couldn't hit a ball that far Mantle certainly wouldn't have been able to.
I could listen to that Mazara shot on repeat the rest of my life.

Pete Incaviglia for the Tiger's hit one up at the top of the light tower in left, similar to Manny Ramiraz's blast..
Sanchez's homerun was mighty impressive. A pitch off the inside edge that he just turns on and yanks it down the line and sends it damn near 500 feet.
It always feels good catching a 505 foot homer.
There's no better feeling than when the bat flexes, and you know you nailed it and mailed it.
That Mazara one... Such the pure sound of the ball getting utterly annihilated!
Glen Allen Hill, hit one on the roof of the building across Waveland Ave. At Wrigley
He hit some monster shots. I was at a game where he hit a homerun ball across Waveland and down Kenmore.
I remember that monster home run and some "experts" were trying to estimate it went about 450 feet. Teammate Mark Grace said, "450 feet my fanny"!
Only ball I've ever seen hit onto one of those roofs. That was Hill + steroids + 30 mph wind. What a shot!
lol as a baltimoron, Hearing home runners makes me wanna crack beers with my boys.Good shit.
Statcast is nice. McGuire hit the scoreboard at then Jacobs Field and Mantle parked one on the roof at old Municipal Stadium in Cleveland.
I wish there was a way to measure the one Ted Simmons hit to left field in Philadelphia in ‘75 or ‘76. In my memory it was by far the hardest hit ball I ever saw. It seemed like it was still on the way up when it hit the seats, and reached the seats faster than any other.
I'm from Philly and that would be Veterans Stadium. Willie Stargell has the longest HR hit there. They marked the seat with a "S". Simmons slammed some as well...

Don’t forget Dave Kingman’s monster shot back in’79. Went 530 feet

Miguel Sano, to this day I can’t believe how far that ball went.
He hit one in Tampa that probably would have broken records, but we’ll never know because of that dumb stadium. Multiple people said it was the hardest ball they’ve ever seen hit. Whatever happened to that guy?
I can remember players hitting home runs onto and over the roof of Tiger Stadium, but the seats of those old stadiums were a lot closer to the field.
No coincidence that two of these were hit in Coors Field by guys who normally play at 6’ above sea level in Miami.
Galarraga at Joe Robbie Stadium 529 ft but everyone knows it was more than that
Definitely one of the absolute longest home runs I've seen footage of, amazing how far that thing went...
This is the longest home run, visually, I've ever seen. I've never seen a baseball hit harder. He absolutely obliterated it.
I think they originally called it 572.
So I'm guessing that Statcast hasn't been around very long
Mark McGwire, 1998, Chase Field batting practice. 550 footer, out of the window, onto Jefferson street. Ball was never found.

How about Mantle's homerun that hit the facade in the house that Ruth built
On a upward trajectory and something like 563 ft.
Josh Gibson is the only one to ever hit one clear out of Yankee Stadium.
Stanton's is way over estimated. Mike Piazza hit a ball back past that spot onto the walkway once, and it was estimated at 495 (later revised to 515).
