Taylor Trammell's top-deck moonshot didn't go as far as you think originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Taylor Trammell has never been an above-average hitter in his career; he's never posted an OPS+ of 100 or higher over the course of a full season according to Baseball Reference.
However, this season has been slightly different for him, as he's hitting .275 and holds a respectable .733 OPS.
And today, he delivered a moonshot into the top deck of Rogers Centre for the Houston Astros, which if not for modern tracking data, I would have ****** umed it to be one of the farthest hit baseballs of all time.
Taylor's homer went 421 feet, a respectable amount, but shorter than one would expect for a ball that hit the top deck.
