In his first full season as a big leaguer, he nearly joined the club with 41 homers and 37 stolen bases. According to the White Sox's official Twitter account, the gargantuan blast traveled an estimated 475 feet. The event did happen more than 34 years ago, so it's hard to fault Tennyson for not remembering exactly how he got the number 582. Not being a fan of baseball, he also said he was just focused on getting an exact measurement and not taking home run history into consideration at all.

En route to the Royals winning the 2015 World Series title, KC’s first baseman launched this moonshot in the ALDS against the Houston Astros. Hosmer has slugged three postseason home runs in his career . What we see here was the only one he hit during the 2015 playoffs. Snyder’s homer is tied for the second-shortest out-of-the-park homer hit in the past eight seasons (trailing only a 311-foot shot by Jeff Keppinger in 2006).

Instead, the ball ricocheted off his glove for a home run. You know a home run traveled far when even the fans sitting in the outfield have to turn around to see where it lands. The home run eventually won the game for the Cincinnati Reds, and was the seventh longest home run in the history of Great American Ball Park. The home run saw Wright take a fastball yard while Kimbrel blew just his 13th career save opportunity. Not much has gone right for the Houston Astros this season, but J.D. Martinez’s 464-foot home run off Max Scherzer helped the Astros avoid a sweep at the hands of the Detroit Tigers.

But who has hit the longest home run this season? Take a look at the 15 longest home runs of the 2013 MLB season so far. There's home run king Barry Bonds, there's Adam Dunn depositing baseballs into other states. There's the unbelievable power of Wily Mo Peña or Glenallen Hill.

Honorable Mention: Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels, Kauffman Stadium

In fact, it would have been 38 feet shy of the fence in the same location at Comerica Park, Cabrera's home field. Crisp’s average home run traveled 368.9 feet, the shortest average distance of any hitter in a single season with at least 20 home runs in the past eight seasons. The next-shortest was J.J. Hardy, who averaged 385 feet on his home runs. Mike Trout led the major leagues in average home run distance this season , averaging nearly 420 feet per homer.

Meyer reared back and connected with a breaking ball from reliever Mike Murphy -- sending it deep into the Denver darkness. The ball kept going up and up until it hit halfway up the second deck of Mile High Stadium -- a place very few baseballs go. If you watch the video, the camera can't even follow it that high. Meyer admits he never saw where it landed. When Meyer came up for the at-bat in question that night, he had already homered. But players on the field thought it had only gone out because of the thin Rocky Mountain air.

Prior to 2022, Stanton’s 2020 postseason performance is his best. Unlike some other mammoth homers in baseball history, there are only a handful of stories on Meyer's blast -- the longest ever according to the internet. He seems content with that -- helping out a little bit at MLB clinics on the island and really not talking about his baseball career unless somebody finds out about it.

Meyer had hit BP balls up there but never in a game. Nobody had ever done it in a game. A perfect swing, the high altitude and maybe, just maybe, the bat he used all played a role.

Here are the longest homers of the 2013 season. Not bad for a player whose hip concerns this past offseason delayed his free agent deal. Considering that Cobb has a 2.73 ERA on the season, Rasmus’ long ball is even more impressive. Let’s take a look at the 10 longest home run blasts of the 2013 season. Will Schwarber ever square a ball up this well again?

The home run wasn’t just impressive to watch, but it was also the longest of Trout’s already historic career.

Napoli’s 460-foot home run was his fourth home run of calculated at 460 feet or more, the most such home runs this year. No other player even had three such home runs. On May 22, Cabrera hit a fly ball to the center-field wall at Progressive Field. Trout hit the longest home run of the season at two different ballparks -- Kauffman Stadium and Tropicana Field .

Obviously, the power needs to be there, but if the ball is not hit right off the sweet spot of the bat, it might simply be a dribbler down the third base line. The great Ted Williams said that the hardest thing to do in sports is hit a baseball. Atlanta's Evan Gattis clobbered the longest home run of the regular season with a 486-foot bomb off Phillies ace Cole Hamels early in the second week of September.

On May 23, just two days after hitting for the cycle against the Seattle Mariners, Trout took Royals’ pitcher Ervin Santana deep as the second batter of the game. On an 0-1 count, Trout launched his 10th home run of the season to one of the deepest parts of Kauffman Stadium to give the Angels an early lead. Giancarlo Stanton likes hitting postseason home runs, and he’s done it in bunches. We also know he rarely gets cheated when it comes to distance. This is just another example of that.
