Jorge Soler just completed the most impressive power hitting season in Royals history. He obliterated the franchise single-season home run record, finishing with 48 home runs. It was a tour de force of slugging—a mighty confluence of good health, a hitter reaching his prime, and a baseball that encouraged punishment.
To honor and celebrate this monumental achievement it’s time to rank each of Soler’s home runs. The rankings are based on my made up formula that consists of impressiveness of the dinger (distance, exit velocity, etc.) and impact on the game. Today, we present dingers from 48 to 41.
