Juan Francisco hit a monster blast to right field. I couldn't see the ball land, if it did yet.
They have not announced the distance yet because no one saw it land. The consensus in the press box that it left completely.
As I typed it witnesses said it cleared the ballpark completely, landing on the south side, the south side of Mehring Way. The estimate is 502 feet, which is 167 yards or put another way three yards more than the Bengals total offense in an average game.
