Watch: Willson Contreras Hits Monster 453-Foot Bomb in Pittsburgh
Willson Contreras has been off to a little bit of a slow start to the 2022 season so far, going 2-for-9 with no extra-base hits. Of course, measuring a MLB player’s success based on just three games can be a bit misleading.
That all changed with one mighty swing in the 1st inning of today’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Contreras mashed this bomb 453 feet at an exit velocity of 110 mph. That, my friends, is an absolute tank.
