I'd say that ball went about 460 feet, give or take.

It should show up in the automatic replay after the hit itself.

Check my original post. The one i hit with Derosa went 460, i would assume the Ross one went a little further

Yeah, but DeRosa's was more on a line and a little bit less down the line. By it being "on a line," that means remove the stands from the equation and imagine where that ball would have landed without stands. Better yet, have a sky-high fly ball land in the exact same spot in the stands, and just know how that ball would have technically not gone as far as a liner into that part of the stands. By being a little bit less down the line, well, just know that down the line is closer to the plate so a ball hit down there will go more up the stands than a ball hit the same distance not as down the line.

So I'll give you 465, not a foot more.

EDIT: Actually, it pretty much went in the same direction (but as you could tell it was less affected by the wind, probably by the speed of it). I'll still say 465 for Ross's home run. Saying anything like 480 would be far too generous.

I love seeing how far people could hit home runs in this game. I cant get enough. Any good videos of some awesome shots on youtube? Ive only seen a few. Still cant find anything over 500 ft

*Sidenote* Notice the empty parking lot, yet the stands are full..........gas prices making all those fans bus it to the park!? Lmao.......

If I remember right, that's not stadium parking on that side. Might be connected to the marina instead.

It's not. In the earlier years of the park's opening, the baseball players used to enter there to park. Don't think they parked in that lot itself, but you know.

And this stadium doesn't really have a parking lot, Segagendude. It's on the corner of 3rd and King street, literally its own block on the street. I always take the train there or get dropped off.
