Jose Bautista Crushes Monster Home Run vs. Rays

There are home runs, and then there are no-doubters.

The home run hit by Toronto Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista in the bottom of the sixth inning of Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays would fall into the latter category.

On a 2-0 count, Rays right-hander Steve Geltz left a pitch up over the plate, and Bautista made him pay. It wasn't a matter of if the ball would clear the left-field wall. It was a matter of which deck it would land in.

According to MLB.com's Gregor Chisholm and Bill Chastain, Statcast estimated that Bautista's blast traveled 451 feet.
