FP thinks the ball would've traveled at least another 40 feet if the stands had not been there.

How far was it hit

Same as intentional walk  ...  Max should have signaled an intentional strike out.

Thanks

Wouldn't it have?

It was on its way down.

[NatsAllThe Way]

Anyway, we have a closer now.  Rest of bullpen may be stabilizing a bit.  Trevor Gott will be called up, we'll trade for someone else at the deadline.  Things are ok until the playoffs.

FP just now: "Oh, Max is GASSED"
