MLB's current home run is different

Giancarlo Stanton (35) of the New York Yankees hit a left-handed home run without a runner in the bottom of the third inning with his team leading the Houston Astros 4-1 at home at Yankee Stadium in New York on the 9th (Korea time). It was not just a home run. With a ball count of one ball and two strikes, he pulled Spencer Arigetti's fourth pitch of 78.5 miles (126.3 kilometers/h) to score a 447-foot (136.2 meters) line drive home run. The launch angle was slightly lower than 20 degrees, but the batting speed was 119.9 miles (192.9 kilometers/h).

MLB.COM, the official website of Major League Baseball (MLB), said it is the fifth strongest home run in the league since 2015 when Statcast tracked down the batting average. Stanton is responsible for both the top and second place records. The first place is 121.7 miles (195.8 kilometers/h), and the second place is 121.3 miles (195.2 kilometers/h). The third place is 121.2 miles (195 kilometers/h) that was achieved by Ronald Acuna Jr. of the Atlanta Braves. The fourth place is 121.1 miles (194.8 kilometers/h) by Aaron Judge, Stanton's teammate. As he occupies three of the top five spots, the expression "strong business" does not seem awkward.안전 토토사이트

Coincidentally, Stanton also hit a "bullet home run" on the previous day. In the bottom of the fifth inning with his team leading 6-1, Stanton pulled Houston starter Justin Verlander's 86.2 miles (138.7 kilometers/h) slider to hit the left-wall homer. The launch angle was 15 degrees, lower than that of Tuesday's home run, but the speed of the homer was measured to be 118.8 miles (191.1 kilometers/h). He hit more than 118 miles of home run for two consecutive days, the second time in the history of the Statcast era. MLB.COM said Judge hit his 121.1 miles and 118.6 miles (190.8 kilometers/h) homerun against the Baltimore Orioles for two consecutive days in 2017.

Stanton ranks first in the Major League Baseball (MLB) with 410 home runs (378 in second place). He has a batting average of 0.228 with eight homers and 20 RBIs in 33 games this season. In 2017, when he was with the Miami Marlins, he recorded 59 homers and 132 RBIs and was named the MVP of the National League.
