Elly De La Cruz bashed a 512 foot home run for the AA Chattanooga Lookouts on Thursday evening. Five-hundred and twelve feet, which is enough feet to clear the old PNC Tower with seventeen feet to spare.
Five-hundred and twelve feet, and off the bat, it looked every bit that far.
MAMMOTH 512' from Elly De La Cruz his 1st Double-A HOME RUN!!!
