I want to say mine was Frank Thomas but I'm not sure bc of time ago
Del Bender - what a hit over left field lounge back in the day when it was open - 1977/1978 timeframe.
That would be Bobby Dalbec. Hit one over all the trailers in left field and over the bathroom behind the trailers. I still hate that guy every time I hear his name for what he did in that SR.
Bruce Castoria in '79.......His batting practices were legendary.......
It would have to be during the Gorilla Ball days or before. The dead bat era, followed by BBcor has made it more difficult.
Butch Hobson
I saw Bruce Castoria hit one that cleared everything in the left field lounge. I think the balls still in orbit. As a teenager I had never seen a ball hit that high and that far. He was an amazing power hitter!
Frank Thomas !!!
Bo Jackson
Bo Jackson from the right side- Will Clark from the left side
Tie between One Rooker hit against Tennessee and Bobby Dalbec's
Rooker hit one so high it was the literal definition of a moonshot against Tennessee, it wasn't about how far it went but how high it got up. It landed right at the old bathrooms.
Stephen Head into the parking lot behind the RF
Bruce hit Bombs for the Dogs, but Frank Thomas longest by an opponent
I saw David Hayman hit one in practice that I didn't think would ever land.
Bo Jackson not even close
Frank Thomas. I swear it hit the side of the football practice facility (at the time), but that seems unbelievable.
WHO CARES !!
