Eh, I’ve seen bigger bombs on the quad on a misty spring morning.

I was at that game and sitting down the Lf line. It was a freaking bomb and I remember it landing about halfway down the hill beyond the bleachers at Rosenblatt. Still the farthest I’ve seen a ball hit in person.

58 games in a row with a HR? Truly gorilla ball.

Bruh, that dude was fricking HUGE and was playing in the infield. Those were the days.

That was a classic no-doubter.

it went a long long way...not sure if it went further than Joey Belle's hr against Miami though
Longest HR (on tv) was Lyle Mouton against UF

And those Reflex C-Core bats were a joke.

This is how you get stuck in a youtube hole...

I've always been partial to Hawpe's second homer vs. USC in 2000. It's the most picture perfect homerun I've ever seen.

Those bats had more to do with the HR's than players being juiced. You still have to hit the ball.

First round. Not semis

It seems that Todd Walker is by far the most mention name when talking about past LSU baseball players.
That is sentimentality not production.
He seems to get more than the lion share of attention when talking about past LSU baseball greats. Don’t know why he never did shite in the pros to promote the legacy.
No idea why this would be interjected here. His MLB career was solid, not great. But his production at LSU is not in dispute.
Fr ('92) .400 BA
Soph ('93) .395 BA, led SEC in HRs (22)
Jr ('94) .393 BA
Todd Walker bio
Any discussion of our all-time greats will include Todd Walker. Put together three amazing seasons.

Brandon Larson HR off Matt Andersen
1997 semis vs. Rice.
I always wanted to know how far did that sucker go. I mean that had everything going for it. 101 mile an hour fastball straight down the middle pitcher, a freakishly strong hitter, favorable winds.
I think there were tornadoes in the area. The foul poll was completely obsolete because that bomb was like 110 feet above the foul poll which is ridiculous. The ball just kind of disappeared and the empires waved it fair.
Brandon Larson gets overshadowed with all the freakish athletes that have come through LSU. His entire season was a hot streak.

Thanks for sending me down a 2 hour rabbit hole of baseball highlights.

Good to see Joe Morgan was always an idiot. Dude for Rice hung the shite out of that pitch.. that Joe calls a fastball.

Joey Belle hit more balls on to Nicholson than any players to come through the program. Ain’t even close
as a right handed hitter, I doubt it. He wasn't hitting 420 ft opposite field home runs. I'd imagine Eddy Furniss and Walker lead in that category.

He hit one over the bleachers in the power alley against Stanford a couple of days later too.
