    If the count is the problem, stay on the page and click the X when it's around 5 seconds. The count doesn't go down when you are out the tab.

    It's almost impossible to hit the ball out to straightaway center at MMP.

    the fact that we have to pull out pictures of guys from the steroid era proves how hard it is.

    I have no problem with the stadium dimensions. I actually like their is a deep center field since its so easy to hit a home run down the right and left field lines.

    Matt Adams: 6-6-12 Link

    Justin Upton: 5-4-10 Link

    Jesus Montero had the distance last year, but it was just a bit to the left of Tals Hill.

    Brett Wallace hit on 460 feet back in '11, but it was just a bit to the right of the hill.

    Hunter Pence hit on 441 feet in '09 to the left of tals hill (there was quite a few bombs to center in '09 but this one was longer than 436 feet, the others were just short (Pence had 3...wow).

    There has been others but just a bit too the left/right of tals hill. 2009 was the last year I checked, so there could have been more.

    Well, Sexson didn't actually hit a HR. He hit it incredibly hard though. There's a flagpole that was in play and he hit that high up on it and left a mark on it still visible today. I wonder how far it would have gone if it wasn't stopped.
