Baseball Almanac

"Mark (McGwire) is just a good hitter with a good eye and a nice short swing. He also just happens to be the biggest guy on the planet. Hit hits towering blasts. You'll be sitting there saying, 'Aww, he didn't quite get that one.' Then it ends up thirty rows in the stands." - Baltimore Orioles Shortstop Cal Ripken, Jr.

          Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a fun chart which illustrates the length of Mark McGwire's ten longest major league home runs. IMPORTANT chart notes: Each chart column can be clicked on (which will connect you to the box score from the game), hovered over (which will bring up the exact length) and FF is short for Football Field.

Fast Facts

Each Mark McGwire home run distance was calculated in feet by the team, not by Baseball Almanac, Inc. This is pointed out due to the debate often heard about the accuracy of these systems and we welcome your opinion about the various methods employed by teams to measure home runs on Baseball Fever.

Did you know that the FF used in the chart stands for football field? Did you know that each home run column in the chart links directly to the box score from the game where the blast was heard? Did you know we have even more charts here for you to enjoy:
