Roman Anthony's grand slam last night, traveling 497 feet, not only boasts impressive raw power but also ranks among the most significant home runs recorded in the Statcast era. When considering the major and minor league home runs measured longer than Anthony's, it's evident that many were aided by favorable conditions. Notably, the home runs that exceed his distance are influenced by their respective stadium dimensions, with a significant number coming from Coors Field. This places Anthony's achievement in a broader context of power hitting, showcasing just how remarkable his performance truly was.
