    Tonight's home runs

    Leaving Stanton's moon shots out of the equation here, I'm just commenting on home runs hit tonight I've seen first hand surfing the extra innings package I have.

    Sousa Jr. home run off of Wacha was a absolute bomb to straight away left field.

    I stopped at the Padre game to check out this beast of a kid they brought up Blash (outfielder)
    He croaked one to dead center.

    Ozuna just hit a moon shot to left that was for the ages.

    I just saw Smoak hit one to dead center.

    These guys don't have this much power.
    The league can tell me until they are blue in the face the ball is not juiced, I'm sorry, these are super balls they are using.

    If you played the game you know how much power it takes to hit one out of any park to dead center, and this is becoming common place.

    Guys just toying with dead center shots now. Clearing the wall by 25 ft + most of the time. MLB needs to adopt the little league philosophy and move walls back 10% at least.

    Check out Blash's homer.
    It cleared the center field wall (slight lean to left) and it was still sailing as it went over the fence.
    Unreal.

    OK, this is getting ridiculous, Kolten fukking Wong just hit one out of the park opposite field.
    He's 160 lbs soaking wet.
    When Wong goes opposite then something isn't right.

    Blash strikes out a lot.
