The current hardest hit baseball in MLB statcast history, a ball hit by O'Neal Cruz of the Pirates on 4/20/2022, had an exit velo of 122.4 mph. With this exit velocity, a baseball hit at the perfect launch angle and in a vacuum would travel 1002 feet (Cruz didn't hit it at a perfect launch angle, he hit it at a low launch angle, so it didn't even leave the park). Now obviously you can't hit baseballs in a vacuum because you would need a pressure suit, and you wouldn't be able to swing a bat with enough power while wearing one. But the closest you can get to this would be traveling to actual high elevation, the kind of elevation that puts this baseball field to shame. My suggestion would be Ecuador, which has high elevation combined with hot temperatures and available baseball fields. The hot temperatures are relevant because they also reduce air density -- hot air is less dense than cold air -- so baseballs will go even further. The terrain in Ecuador also provides enough flat land at high elevation to build baseball fields on. Ecuador's capital Quito is well over 9000 feet in elevation and located on the equator, and Ecuador has towns accessible by road that are higher than Quito.

I've been working summers at Yellowstone National Park the last few years and we'll head to Jackson Hole to get a taste of civilization once in a while. It's really cool to see he's doing well and keeping the baseball life going strong and it's interesting how small the world can be watching him as a kid and sharing the same space as him now as an adult.

Those guys couldn’t hit a ball 520 feet in a home run derby competing against each other also Fenway Park is not an air-conditioned dome stadium and it’s at sea level is Manny Ramirez were to hit that ball at Coors field before they started putting baseballs in the humidor.

They use CGI or editing tricks there’s no way these clowns are hitting a baseball 500 feet let alone 580 feet further than Babe Ruth bullshit world record and it won’t count anyways because you know they’re using quart aluminum bats they’re doing it at altitude in the desert where the air is super dry and super thin.

Jim Thome hit one that was 511ft at Jacobs Field in 1999. There’s a plaque in the ground where it landed. That’s a wood bat at a low 675’ elevation ASL… imagine how much further it would have went with a juiced bat at 6000ft elevation with a flat-brimmed hat.

[@jefffawcett]

It was obviously not 580 feet they just made that up. They asked a civil engineer to make a projection so it’s not like it was measured officially. The guy just said let’s call at 580 feet, required assumptions on velocity on the trajectory on angle when it hit the stands. The wall in left center at mile high stadium is at 366 feet. To assume a ball that landed in the upper deck would actually have traveled 216 feet past the is a serious stretch.

But in MLB they use wood bats, this guy used an aluminum bat for the 580 ft
