    Not many players are capable of hitting a ball as hard as Shohei Ohtani did in Sunday's game against the Red Sox. His 30th home run of the season went an estimated 473 feet, and gave Los Angeles a 6-2 lead over Boston.

    According to Baseball Savant it Ohtani's 20th home run of the year that would be a home run in all 30 parks. That's MLB's best mark. He's also now just four behind Yankees slugger Aaron Judge for the MLB lead.

    The 473-foot homer was the second-longest of the year for Ohtani and tied for Judge's longest of the season. Ohtani's 476-foot shot in Colorado was the longest in baseball this year before Giants outfielder Jorge Soler hit a 478-footer in Colorado on Sunday.

    Still, 473 feet is tied for the third-longest homer in baseball this season. And that's an extremely impressive feat even for Ohtani.
