Cron’s moonshot fell one foot short of Nomar Mazara’s 505-foot bomb against the Chicago White Sox in June, 2019, and ties the Yankees’ Giancarlo Stanton’s 504-foot home run—which he also hit at Coors Field—for second place, according to data from the MLB.
The blast to left field as part of the Rockies 13-10 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks came at a notoriously hitter’s friendly ballpark, where researchers at the University of Colorado have found the altitude and low-air density in Denver helps baseballs travel with less resistance.
Major League Baseball compensates for the air conditions by storing baseballs in so-called “ជាតិសំណើម” to lessen the advantage to power hitters.
So far this season, Cron is batting .266 with 27 home runs this season, according to ឯកសារយោងកីឡាបេស្បល។, and has 173 career home runs.
