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.

Wow.

But it was against the Red Sox so therefore MLB is disallowing it and calling it a ground rule double.

But if it was the Yankees they would've said "The fan caught it, your out" so...

yup, saw it live(on tv)... it was awesome

Awesome homerun, and the result of it even better!!

F**k the Red Sox!!!

F**k the Red Sox!!!

No No Accord you got it all wrong

 

F**K the F***ING Red Sox !!!

 

I enjoy your passion though, no pun intended.

Anyone else see Justin Morneau's game tying shot off of Troy Percival in the ninth? That was a monster shot.

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).

f***ing Percival!

 

Oh well, Pudge came through in the 10th.

That was an abosultely ridiculous shot

David Ortiz hit a shot off the jumbo tron which is to the right of the Hess sign in CF. It wasn't as long as Perez's HR.

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.
