Longest Home Run so Far? MLB 10

[jbenchley]

I crushed one with Babe Ruth in the HR Derby 492ft
I was pretty impressed as last year the longest i saw was around the 440-450ish mark in a game.

I have only played through 2 games but i cracked 441ft in a game so far, it was with Lou Gehrig but still it almost matched my longest from MLB 09.

I hit a 498 foot shot into McCovey cove during the home run derby with Adam Dunn. With broadcast presentation I was hoping to see it hit the water, but it only showed it going over the fence.

I hit one 500 ft even with Prince Fielder in HR Derby in Wrigley.

In a real game my farthest is 444 ft with my RttS guy.

Some awesome shots for sure. I was dissapointed last year as i could not realistic distances with some of the legends. I know for example Babe Ruth hit 500fters every year of his career. I was never able to even approach that distance with him. BTW anything over 450ft is a monster home run, most players never even hit one that far. 500ft is absolutely monumental as it very rarely happens. Most players never come close to that distance.

FYI Barry Bonds longest shot was only 492ft on Aug 27th, 2002 and we all know what a fast power swing he had.
