Ah, just hit my first no doubter with Carlos Quentin but it only went 425. I am definitely appreciating the home runs more this year

2 run shot off Halladay. Hadn't hit anything in play all game. Got a lucky HBP, and then belted this shot with Geo Soto.

481 ft shot by Beltran on Allstar with power slider up 1 and pitch speed down 2.........I was speechless, it was definitely the longest homerun I've hit in any baseball game

Casey Kotchman @ Progressive Field off of Tim Stauffer of the Padres. All-Star, with Contact & Timing set at 0 and Power set at default, and 16MPH winds blowing out to right center.

I don't have a picture or video, or even an official measurement because I hit it on the Vita but after a Scott Hairston BOMB in Colorado the play by play guy announced that the blast was measured at "over 440 ft".

I think my knowledge of this bit of audio is proof of membership.

That looked every bit of 441' ... that was well over the wall.

An exception will be made considering the moderate distance.

Do home runs hit with the Move count? In my first game playing with it on default all-star I somehow managed to hit 8 HRs in a normal game, 4 of which were over 450'. Not sure if power is jacked up with Move batting but it did seem pretty crazy at the time. My second game I only had 1 HR . Up to you to decide the legitimacy of Move home runs jmik.

CRUSHED a ball to Left-Center field in the Anaheim Angels stadium with Chris Ianetta!

Louis Coleman pitched me a 1st strike 4SFB so I definately knew that wouldn't be the 2nd pitch so I guessed the pitch to be a changeup and low and behold it was. Right at belt height and I PLASTERED that ball. Felt so good. 460 feet.

If you have a video or photo...we'll make it work. That's interesting, I wonder if they did jack up the power to make it more "fun" to play with the Move controller.
