you've ever seen.

I've never literally dropped the jaw before, or since, Albert Pujols against Brad Lidge in Houston, Game 5, NLCS.

Brandon Phillips granny off that gay slide against the brewers is on the top of my list.

Terry Pendleton (Braves) hit one out of Wrigley that was rising as it passed over Waverly and over a rooftop.

Roided up McGwire hit one about 480 at the Jake. I think he hit the top of the scoreboard in center field.

1971 all-star game at Tiger Stadium. REGGIE Jackson hits the light posts in right field. Its the only thing that stopped it from leaving the stadium. MAMMOTH SHOT!!!!!

Pretty much any Bonds homer run in that NLCS. Jesus, I've never seen a player so possessed.

Live, I swear I saw a home run by Jose Canseco that Cal Ripken nearly caught at short, but it kept rising and went over the fence. It was the hardest hit ball I've ever seen.

Barry Bonds' moonshot off of Troy Percival in the World Series was insane.

Gonna need a link on that. No one has ever hit one over the rooftops. But, Glenallen Hill hit this homer onto the rooftop that was estimated at 500 ft even. They even say in the video that the producer, Arne Harris, hadn't seen that in over 30 years of following baseball at Wrigley.

I remember Jose Canseco hitting one in the upper deck of the Skydome. Don't know how far that was though.

Cecil Fielder and Mark McGuire have both hit it completely out of Tiger Stadium before, sure one was roided up, but I'm sure Cecil's was legit. Either way, 4 people have done what REGGIE couldn't, so its not impressive

ETA* he did it over the left field roof, apparently everyone and their brother could do it over the right field roof.
