At least it juts out immediately after that instead of having an entire short porch in right field. Makes the Pesky homeruns quirky instead of just cheap.
Not sure what's crazier, Alan Trejo being back to back in this video for 2 teams, or the Diamondbacks and Padres being back to back hitting it in basically the same exact spot
Yeah and one in the trop I think 🤔 A.L. East ballparks have weak distance at their corners. Thank goodness Camden yards pushed back their fence and rose it up as well.
Not sure if I’ve ever seen one like Ian Happ’s at the 1:13 mark. It hit the very bottom of the foul pole where it’s not even painted yellow, just a grey patch.
I'm honestly surprised there wasn't at least a few more Tropicana ones, they got their own little Pesky Pole area in left field, but I guess it is still a little further back at 315ft vs Pesky at 302
Alan Trejo hitting the shortest home runs for two different teams and also having those home runs be back-to-back in terms of distance is the kind of crazy statistical anomaly only baseball can provide
@@SirTylerGolf and Yankee stadium has one of the deeper left/left center dimensions in the league. Like any ballpark there’s quirks and advantages or disadvantages unique to the stadium
That Luis Robert home run at #4, I was at that game last season...horrible weather all afternoon...it wasn't raining but it was just misty all throughout the game...
Not at all surprising to see so many of these in Yankee Stadium and Fenway. In the 1980s, I went to dozens of games at Fenway, but the only homer I saw down by Pesky Pole was by the right-handed batting Dan Gladden. He took a Roger Clemens fastball the other way and just made it.
Ok so the Yankees and Red Sox made the same right field. Both parks are in this video a lot. You notice how the right field corner is not marked in Boston. Full camera shot at the pole, no marker.
As a diamondbacks fan, it’s really upsetting to see how easy it is to hit a homer in other ballparks. Chase Field home of the Dbacks is the most difficult ballpark to hit a homer in. Deep outfield and it’s about 360 feet at the shortest point and 420 ish at the deepest part. Huge disadvantage to a players slugging numbers playing in Phoenix compared to Aaron Judge in the Bronx who obviously is going to hit 50 homers a season
@@Brian-nx3yp not too much, I’ve lived here my whole life. We’re only 1,000 feet above sea level which helps a little bit but not much at all compared to Denver for example where they are 5,200 feet above sea level. Chase field remains the most difficult park to homer in
I'd love it if the HR leader for one season was a Red Sox player who specialized in getting hits towards the Peskey Pole. Who's the HR leader this year? Some jacked dude like Aaron Judge who's hitting 430 ft bombs? Nope, just some good contact hitter who's really good at squibbing 300 ft dinkers towards the short porch. 😂
I just want to let everyone know that as a Red Sox fan all of the ones hit in Fenway Park are fake because I don’t recall anyone ever hitting a home run off the Red Sox 😅
Due to the odd shape of fenway park it's on average way harder to hit home runs there. For example judge would have 261 career HR if all his games were at fenway, when he really has 321. You can use Baseball savant to compare players at different parks
Funniest thing about this is it’s basically just a compilation of road teams hitting homers against the Red Sox
At least that stadium has been around for a while. It would be worse if the stadium was only five years old.
That pesky pole!
Or yanks, but mostly Red Sox for sure lol
everybody gangsta until you hit a 230 foot home run at polo grounds
Real💀💀
Or a 484 foot home run to center field at the Polo Grounds
The equal and opposite of having Willie Mays catch your fly ball you hit nearly 500 feet.
Mel Ott would like a word.
258' in RF 276' in LF. Dusty Rhodes 258' shot to win game 1 of the 1954 WS. The most famous Chinese Homerun of them all.
As a Red Sox fan I don’t know what else I was expecting 🤦♂️
Was it 13 hrs at Fenway with 12 being the visiting team? I feel attacked.
@@Billy.MatsonI mean, the Red Sox can only hit 1 in this entire video by default
Fenway is small, so it would make sense that most of them would be against the Sox.
At least it juts out immediately after that instead of having an entire short porch in right field. Makes the Pesky homeruns quirky instead of just cheap.
Yeah you knew the Pesky pole would be the star of this video.
Clicked on video expecting a Pesky Pole compilation
Got a Pesky Pole compilation
I was expecting a short porch compilation
I love poles
Not sure what's crazier, Alan Trejo being back to back in this video for 2 teams, or the Diamondbacks and Padres being back to back hitting it in basically the same exact spot
Trejo is a typo, Nationals was actually Eddie Rosario
@@squizzage1464bro you're a life saver i was dead confused searching all over for another alan trejo i was like what 😭
The Top 10 is basically just 10 different teams bouncing balls off of the Pesky Pole.
I had to rewind to make sure my eyes read it right
"I can hit a home run!"
The place in question in which he can 'hit' a home run:
102 pitches in the 4th? Rough outing would be an understatement.
Real
Which one?
@@matthewdowling6549 The last one, for the royals homerun
probably didnt last much longer
and only 2 runs given up until that point, jeez, that's rough
17 of the 30 were in either Fenway or Yankee
Yeah and one in the trop I think 🤔 A.L. East ballparks have weak distance at their corners. Thank goodness Camden yards pushed back their fence and rose it up as well.
Okay the clang of the ball hitting the foul pole at 0:19 is super satisfying.
Literally NOBODY in attendance for that game lol
BAAHHWOOWOWwowowowowow
Fenway is 298, but it’s marked as 302. The miracle happened overnight after MLB mandated a minimum of 300 feet from home to the foul poles.
I love how these are either all Pesky Pole, YS short porch, or Petco Park home runs.
Stanton has one of the longest and shortest hrs in recent history
stantonian blast to left and caught for an out
Not sure if I’ve ever seen one like Ian Happ’s at the 1:13 mark. It hit the very bottom of the foul pole where it’s not even painted yellow, just a grey patch.
Is there a video for shortest home run in each stadium?
Bro a 302 foot home run??? Is this polo grounds? 🤣
I think😂
@@nickbauer9436 No, that is just Fenway.
0:15 is the best Covid homer. Doonnnggg!
Living in Massachusetts, I'm kinda shocked this wasn't a pure Pesky Pole compilation.
I'm honestly surprised there wasn't at least a few more Tropicana ones, they got their own little Pesky Pole area in left field, but I guess it is still a little further back at 315ft vs Pesky at 302
As of today I’ve decided to add “pesky” to my daily vocabulary!!
Alan Trejo hitting the shortest home runs for two different teams and also having those home runs be back-to-back in terms of distance is the kind of crazy statistical anomaly only baseball can provide
the video had a mistake, the guy on the nats was eddie rosario. just mislabeled.
I kept hearing “the pesky pole” 😂😂😂
It's the "Pesky pole", named after Johnny Pesky (q. v.).
Isn’t it Pesky’s Pole? Not Pesky Pole
@@SegaGenesisEvangelion No, the usage dropped the possessive, not heard very often.
Seeing someone edit their comment to beg for likes is beyond cringy
Unliked as soon as I saw the edit😐😐😐
And everyone complains about the short porch at Yankee stadium 😭but look at Fenway
To be fair, that’s if you hit it right down the line. Shoots out to 370+ pretty quickly. Not much room for error
Because the short porch is also BS. Homeruns there arent HRs for like 26 other ballparks.
Lol Fenway has the deepest right center in the league
It goes out to 380 when the wall straightens out.
@@SirTylerGolf and Yankee stadium has one of the deeper left/left center dimensions in the league. Like any ballpark there’s quirks and advantages or disadvantages unique to the stadium
Even the Giants with a short porch in right have their shortest HR at an interleague away game in boston's little corner.
This is just the average 2024 Cleveland Guardians homerun
No 21 was “330” 3 rows deep behind the 334 sign.
Kinda crazy how people complain so much about Yankee Stadium, yet the team didn't even crack the top 10.
Fun fact: The Cardinals' shortest and longest home run were hitted by the same guy:
Paul Goldschmidt
Bethancourt dropping it right in the Crawford Corner is beautiful.
glorious that one of the teams with the biggest field benefits from the shortest home run 🙏🏻
Can you do every teams hardest throw of the stat cast era?
0:50 That is Eddie Rosario hitting
Yes lmao
@@BeakBirdProdz It said it was Alan Trejo that hit it
@@alexanderescobar6863 Ik
Yup. They used the name of the next batter during edition.
@@EnriqueEskeda it wasnt
I do love me a good "glove-spiker" home run. XD
Were any of these hit down the line toward the pesky pole?
The Red Sox were suffering giving up the most homers 💀💀💀💀
So true😂
Not this year
@@PHXNKVHXLIC They gave up a lot to the Rockies
I watched every single one of those throughout my life
@@marcuspelletier6969 cool
Shortest home runs in history courtesy of Fenway Park with a shoutout to Yankee Stadium
I like how all the ones to Right Field at Yankees Stadium are commentated like normal home runs because that right field is so small
That Luis Robert home run at #4, I was at that game last season...horrible weather all afternoon...it wasn't raining but it was just misty all throughout the game...
on the nationals one it was eddie rosario not alan trejo
How many of those were in Fenway?
The one over the red monster definitely would have travelled 350, no? Makes me question how statcast is measuring these…
How many in AL East parks?
Fenway actually has a big right field. Just with a fun short corner that gets hit once in a while.
0:17 is this during Covid or just the usual turn out for a Pirates-Brewers game?
A video of the shortest home run at each stadium would be a better video instead of watching each team hit a HR at Fenway
So we're not counting inside-the-park home runs?
So about half of these take place in Boston and another quarter of them were in New York.
so in other word the pesky pole area is the nearest homerun location in any park
For the nationals you accidentally wrote Alan Trejo but it was Eddie Rosario batting
Funny how the Yankees and Red Sox are united in both having cheap areas to hit home runs in right field specifically
And I cant believe no Yankee has ever hit either foul pole (314 feet)❤g
From 1938-73 the LF pole was 301, and the RF pole 296
Good job, good effort Michael Kay
Mom: “We have Vladdy Jr at home”
Vladdy Jr. at home: 1:36
What is the Starcast Era?
Surely there have to be a few inside-the-parkers that belong on this list. Technically speaking.
Not really sure how theses are being measured. The one that hit the pole at the 314 porch in Yankee stadium was called 320 feet
Height. The ball would have landed 6 feet behind where the pole is if the pole weren't there.
Not at all surprising to see so many of these in Yankee Stadium and Fenway. In the 1980s, I went to dozens of games at Fenway, but the only homer I saw down by Pesky Pole was by the right-handed batting Dan Gladden. He took a Roger Clemens fastball the other way and just made it.

I am going to start telling my friends that the Guardians have the 6th shortest home run!😂
Where are all the inside-the-park-home runs? Surely they're shorter??
That’s Eddie Rosario not Alan Trejo for the Nats
Pesky pole for the win on this one! I didn't count, but it felt like more than half of these were near the ol' Pesky.
Hey Bawstun. I think ya got a wickad issue
Red Sox had so many home runs hit off them
It’s just because of Fenway Park those would not be homers anywhere else
@@ghostly1750 ikr
When a ball hits a foul pole, the ball travelled the distance the pole is from home plate
Why is it always fenway??
Let's see the shortest home run at each stadium
So nobody has hit an inside the park HR in the Stat-trash era?
I love that Ender Inciarte pimped his 😂
Genuinely surprised Boston isn't #1 on this list, given how many more opportunities they have to hit a short home run off the Pesky Pole
Atta Boy Gimenez bro they are all at genes it that corner.I Keep hearing HIGH FLY BALL NEAR THE PESKY POLE
Not almost all of them at fenway
i saw the dodgers one in person at fenway
So basically if I ever go to a game at Fenway, try to get tickets by the pesky pole.
That dang pesky pole. ✊
Imagine hitting a 302 foot home run like yeah you hit a home run but like it was 302 feet
How did I know most of these would be to
right field at Fenway
You should do the shortest homerun by ballpark.
2:15 is that Zach Hample in the green sweater?
2:39 and again behind the foul pole?!?
Nah that's crazy I'm 14 and could technically hit a home run out of fenway 💀
no u could not
@@JustinSavickey I hit one 313 down the right field line literally a couple days ago
@@3liWardand who was pitching to you
@@SideStrafed I'm not saying i'm not hitting a homer off a major leaguer it was in game probably 70 mph
@@3liWard It would have to be directly down the line, basically at the pole. The wall gets deep quickly, straightaway right field is 380.

They should move the fences back and they should move the mound back 5 feet as well
Just here to see how many times right field at Yankee Stadium and Fenway Park showed up. 😆⚾️
フェンウェイの右中間は鬼のように深いが、ポールはめちゃくちゃ近くにあるのでこうなる。ペスキーポールと呼ばれてる。

So what you're saying is we need to demolish Fenway
I was at the White Sox game. Pivetta was great, but talk about a lack of offense.
