Eduardo Perez hit a home run just above that orange trim at the Trop tonight to beat the Red Sox.

 

459ft, I wonder what it woulda gone if the park wasn't there.

roughly 459ft.

 

contrary to what rich waltz says, the measured "distance" number is actually just a rough estimate of how far from the plate the ball would have landed had its flight been uninterrupted (i.e. it didn't hit seats/rafters/etc. but instead landed on the ground).

I hate the Red Sox.

This is off-topic, but I fail to understand the logic of a non-retractable dome stadium in South Florida. It's too hot?? B.S. No wonder the D-Rays have no fans.

It's not the heat but the 95% humidity common down here that will get you.

 

If that doesn't get you lightning from the hourly rain showers will.
