Home runs remain the best part about watching baseball. Nothing quite compares to watching a player crush a baseball over the fence.
But the best part about baseball’s modern era is that all home runs are being tracked. MLB calculates bat speed, exit velocity, launch angle, and distance for each hit.
All that information is accessible at baseballsavant.mlb.com.
With that in mind, here is a look at an updated list of longest home runs for the 2024 MLB season:
