Longest single I've ever seen.

 

They are getting good contact off Porcello

[Abomination]

Hey kids, we have special guests from baseball to see you today!

Yay!

They're major league umpires.

**silence**

[Candy Maldonado]

Why would little kids want to be visited by umpires?

As I suggested in the other thread, that Tellez single to deep center field reminds me of Ortiz in his later years (of course he was old with worn out feet - Tellez is just slow). But in his defense, and he well knows, Bradley has a cannon arm.

[Ex Player]

Sanchez had good stuff (so far)

I don't remember Ortiz as having any speed even when he was younger. I actually think an Ortiz type bat isn't a horribly unrealistic outcome for Tellez, although there's certainly no guarantee of it actually happening. (I'm not saying he'll hit 500 home runs or anything, but that the profile seems relatively similar)

[DigitalRock]

Vlad has had some bad luck since coming up, so many hard hit balls with nothing to show for it.

Sanchez kinda sucks

He could be an Elite Reliever...do it already.

[Deadpool]

What a nightmare of a swing by Maile there. That was a good 8" high, and it was a curve so it started even higher.

Dude can't hit.

Took one too many foul balls off the mask and thought he was Tony Batista for a second there.

[EdwinsParrot]

Vladdy’s first at home

[Deadpool]

Robo ump had Vladdy out on 3 pitches, but instead he f***ING KILLED ANOTHER BASEBALL. 109.7 MPH

[P2F]

Vlad strikes again. Worth the price of admission all on his own.

[Omar]

Vladdito!

[bones10]

427 feet 110 mph good damn

[Ex Player]

424 feet. Off the facing of the 2nd deck in dead centrefield

[DigitalRock]

We are lucky to have Vlad what a beast.

[Plat]

And another one

[Deadpool]

Apparently the XBA for that 424' homer was only .980 There was apparently a chance that wasn't going to be a hit...

[dineke]

please dont waste vlad like delgado and halladay

[Jimcanuck]

Vladito 104 wRC+ with .250 BABIP..... when those bullets right at people start dropping, he is gonna put up video game numbers

[Jonn]

Jesus this kid is special. Please don’t waste this guy’s career by surrounding him with s*** teams.

[Krylian]

Vladdy's OPS is now .813
