Triston Casas’s latest home run caused him to drop a take on one of the most iconic things about Fenway Pak.
The Red Sox first baseman expressed doubts over Ted Williams’s famous home run after hitting a 429-foot homer in Saturday’s 7-2 win over the Angels.
“That’s my best ball, for sure,” Casas told reporters of his homer, which had 111.9 mph exit velocity. “I had one hit harder, exit velo-wise, last year. But that Ted Williams seat is starting to feel more and more like a myth.”
Of course, that “Ted Williams seat” is the lone red seat located in the right field bleachers at Fenway Park.
