That ball was crushed. It was a line drive barely falling when it hit upper deck.

In the pre statcast era, guys would hit them 550+ ft.

Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds and Mark Mcgwire laugh at that...

Barry Bonds hit a ball in 2002 that left earth forever. The damn thing was still going up as it left the stadium. 2002 world series against troy percival. My god thats the longest ball ive ever seen live. I bet it went 600ft. Look it up on YouTube.

How far do you think Statcast would have measured that homer Glenallen Hill hit on the Waveland Rooftop?

As an aside, why are the Rangers building a new park? Nothing wrong with that one.



It gets hot

and that was one of 2 games I will attend this year, I was 2nd deck a couple of sections outside first, that thing was scorched

It had some more horizontal distance to go before it would have been falling straight down.

I know it gets hot but I'm going to really miss the Ballpark in Arlington. That's always been my favorite place to watch a game.

It actually wasn't bad last night with the breeze.

I am ambivalent about it, don't follow the Rangers, although the 2 games I went to to watch the other team were entertaining. I could see following them as a second choice since they are in the other league.
