AJ does have a Weebles wobble but, they don't fall down look about him.

 

I hope that AJ has a basketball under his shirt. Because if he doesn't he is a fat tub of goo.

I think he has his catcher's gear on underneath.

That's the 2nd or 3rd pic in this thread where he's appeared abnormally large for himself. I'll hope you're right.

Looks like he's in good shape. It looks like a breeze just puffed up his shirt in the first "fat" pic.

It's obviously Ohman getting Steve's autograph.

Dunn is such a beast.

I'd like to see him put one past the concourse someday. So far the longest distant home run record

at the Cell is still held by "Tortured by Borchard!"

That is one lanky man. Here's hoping he's got connective tissue of steel!

535? Holy s***. What's the longest ever hit in the majors, since decent measurements began? Can't be much more than that.

10 longest home runs in the electronic hit tracker era. Dunn is #1 at 504 feet.

Sweet sassy molassey! It might have been the poor quality of the video, but I couldn't even see where that landed.

One second, it was resting in the right hand of Dodgers pitcher Jose Lima. The next, Dunn was unfurling that monster swing of his. And there went the baseball.

 

Over the fence in center field, 404 feet from home plate. Over the 20-foot patch of grass behind that fence. Over the 32-foot-high hitter's eye at the back edge of that grass. Then over yet another wall that separates Great American Ball Park from the rest of the world.

 

It's impressive enough when a guy hits a baseball and it goes over a wall. Adam Dunn hit a baseball that cleared three walls -- and came down in the street.

 

"Can you imagine you're driving along out there, switching radio channels or something, and then a baseball comes through the window -- during a game?" Casey laughed. "What the heck would you think?"

 

 

...

Fortunately, Dunn's mighty homer off Lima didn't break any windows or cause any concussions. According to an HOK architect who helped design the park, it landed on a street named Mehring Way, a ridiculous 535 feet from home plate.

 

Then it hopped along for another 200 feet or so and came to rest on a piece of driftwood on the banks of the Ohio River. Which, according to local geographers, meant it was hit in Ohio and came to rest in KENTUCKY. So maybe it just wanted to visit Smarty Jones on the stud farm. That's as good an explanation as any.

Here's the 10 longest HR at Great American ballpark, listing Dunn at 535.

Heh. Dunn is on that top 10 list 3 times.

COUNTRY STRONG. Sorry, thought I'd beat Hawk to the punch.
