Mondesi hit his third triple of the season on the first pitch he saw from reliever Matt Barnes. Statcast™ projected that it traveled 406 feet, making it the first ball Mondesi has hit over 400 feet in the Majors.
"I was just looking fastball," Mondesi said. "I know he throws hard. I was looking fastball and I got it. Put a good swing on it."
The blast rolled into the deepest part of Fenway Park, in right-center field. For a moment, Mondesi thought he had a grand slam.
"Wrong spot," Mondesi said.
