Cincinnati Reds superstar Elly De La Cruz is one of the most electric players in the MLB, and this outrageous homer further proved it.
Against Pittsburgh Pirates ace Daulton Jefferies, De La Cruz smacked the ball so far out of the ballpark at Cincinnati’s Great American Ball Park that the broadcast camera couldn’t even track the ball as it left the diamond.
The ball went so far that it hit the top of the steamboat at Great American Ball Park, something the broadcast team giddily pointed out as De La Cruz rounded the bases for his two-run homer.
De La Cruz is as good at the plate as he is in the outfield, and this homer did so well that the game camera was as flummoxed as the pitcher was.
