Harper's got the gun to play right.

I don't want my RFers hitting cutoff men. the cut off man is for weaklings.

Huh ?  Hitting the cutoff man is required, to give the defense more options to make the best play

Hitting the cut off man is for wusses. Lasers to home.

 :hysterical:     Only reason he needed the throw was because he couldn't catch.    However, he was a Buc at the time so I'll give him some slack.     :couch:

Best I remember (mind fact) is the one (of many) Rocky Colavito launched from CF at Cleveland Stadium into the backstop   ...  on a fly.

I watched the next clip on longest homers.  I was at Comiskey Park 50 years ago when Dave Nicholson put one on and over the left field roof.  Didn't think that was humanly possible.

And then there's Ankiel who throws the ball so hard it blows right through a glove 260 feet away.

I saw Nicholson hit one clean out of RFK (DC Stadium then).

Through the gap under the roof I assume?

Well now it was a very long time ago (1962, I think, he was with the Orioles or White Sox) so I don't recall exactly other than it went out.

I think Frank Howard is the only player to hit a fair ball out of DC Stadium / RFK. Umpire called it foul because the ball hit escape velocity above the foul pole. Opposing left-fielder later said, yes, fair ball. Howard also hit one into a stairway in the upper-deck.

Best throw? Ankiel strike from center as a Nat. I remember Colavito well...he pitched a couple of innings. Mantle, Sievers, Colavito, Killebrew were the AL power hitters in the late '50s.

Powerful throw? Darryl Strawberry from RF at Shea to catcher's belt buckle, no hop. Mistake, however, since runner scored about ten feet ahead of the throw and the batter took second since Strawberry ignored the cutoff man.

Hondo hit one out of RFK, but the umpire called it foul.   :rant:
