WATCH: Christian Yelich Just Hit a Ball 460 Feet
Christian Yelich is having a tough season at the plate but he’s been coming around recently. The former NL MVP hit a ball 460 feet in the bottom of the first inning on Saturday, inching his batting average closer to .200 — he’s hitting .198 after the dinger.
According to Sarah Langs, that’s the second furthest homer tracked by Statcast since the 2015 season!
