524 ft HR for Trout, damn. 

[bloodbrother]

Some real good swings in that 1st. Ohtani just missed a HR

Go Halos!

My wife and I just said the same thing!

Trout with a legendary and Ruthian-like May so far: 1 for 2 with a home run and 4 walks for a .500/.833/2.000 slash line!

Dddaaammmnnn!

[laagamer]

Well, Trumbo still hits the ball hard. Good for him.

Terry and Mark are throwing cold water on the 524-feet measurement.

They're saying more like 450.

My gf just brought me In-N-Out, with fries . . .

Woo Hoo!! The Machine marches on toward 3,000 -- 2,997. And Number 620. LOL.

[Billy_Ball]

Seeing Albert and Trumbo at 1B is funny.  Albert, who pushed Trumbo to third base/DH/OF.

[WeatherWonk]

Have to give Gubi credit. He called that Pujols home run, after the brushback..

It's insight like this that keeps me coming back to AW

[aznhockeyguy]

I saw that 524 figure and I said no way.  450 is more reasonable.  it's only about 355 feet where Trout hit it for the fence so adding about 20 rows at around 5 feet per row sounds reasonable.

Keeper.  In ‘N’ Out fries should come with this disclaimer: only good for five seconds after they’ve been cooked.

Completely agree. There's no way that home run was 524 ft.

[laagamer]

Thank God Mark Trumbo can't run bases worth a goddamn shit.

You forgot the bullpens

He hit it left of the bullpens, it was closer to the foul pole than the bullpens.

Davis with a hit against a lefty!? Rare. Need a double play, right there!

[laagamer]

FREE OUT!

[fan_since79]

The 41-yr old Albert can still move around pretty well at 1st.

 

[JustATroutFan]

Nice pitch! Jam shot!

[southpaw]

Wow. Wide strike zone to righties tonight

[aznhockeyguy]

Wow the ump is giving the outside edge a lot for strikes, not even close.

[Second Base]

You can call Trout's shot Ruthian all you want, but somehow I doubt Ruth ever hit a ball that far. Trout didn't deposit a ball that deep into the stands by eating hot dogs and drinking beer, so I'd hardly expect Ruth to be physically capable of doing such. He wasn't as big or as strong as Trout.
