This isn't official and definitely incomplete. I got this from scrolling through the @LSUBaseballData twitter images. So it obviously won't include the NCAA tourney and while they have some info from most away games, I don't see the HRs from the UGA series. It's possible others are missing as well. Anyway, here are the top 5 that were posted on Twitter. The amazing part is that in addition to having the 3 biggest hits of the year, at least half of Jones' bombs were over 400 feet.


2/21 vs. Southern


3/10 vs. samford


4/15 vs. Kentucky


3/25 vs. Arky


2/19 vs. Western Michigan

Yeah. i'm disappointed we won't get that info. As much as it hurt to watch it, I'd like to know the distance on that one that Turley hit off Hurd that went over the batter's eye. That thing had some distance on it.

I would like to see the statcast on the home run from the Oregon State player who hit it over the batters eye against us. Completely cleared everything and we don't exactly have a small park

edit: This Homerun

That one was probably 480’ and the Hayden HR to left was around 500’

Jones needs to work on hitting the curveball all off season, so he can have a dominant year next year.

He obviously has a ton of power.

The one Travinski hit to left was right at 400’. Not even close to the one Turley hit to center. I saw where the ball hit and measured it on Google maps. It was right between 400-410’

I thought it was established Hayden's HR made it to Uhigh?

If it did, it rolled there

There are two brick columns behind the left field bleachers, it hit dead on top of the second one

Nice. Hitting the pine trees made it look longer

Turley needs to be in P&G next season. That kid is awesome!
