June 2, 201114 yr Not sure if any of you guys ever check this site out, but take a look.... www.hittrackeronline.com They figure out and track the distance and path of each home run hit. I like checking every couple weeks to see who has the furthest HR, and then they also link the video which is nice. Well, I was just looking at the site, and I noticed you can sort by the height of the HR. After watching Luke Scott's towering blast that reached like 148 ft in the air, I thought it would be cool to see the LOWEST HR hit this year. Check this HR out by Carlos Peguero... http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=14879347 Lol. Talk about hitting a rope! Also, here the slowest hit HR, hit by Adam Lind... http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=14345437

June 3, 201114 yr Slowest HR in what sense? Surely that ball cant have the longest hangtime of any this season.
