Wil Myers hit a pair of home runs for the Durham Bulls last night. The second one tied the game in the ninth inning (see video below). But it was the first one that has people in Durham buzzing.

In the seventh inning, Myers hit a ball off the top deck of the building beyond the left-center field wall. According to the announcers the ball was still on the rise when it hit the deck and it was the farthest home run they have ever seen at DBAP.

Unfortunately, the camera loses track of the ball, but based on the home run call, and watching the initial track of the ball, this is roughly how the ball traveled…

And here is video of both home runs. You can make an argument that the second home run is hit just as hard as the first, only it was a line drive and barely cleared the wall…
