Add another one to right-center on the chart. DEEP to right-center. You think Mauer read this article and said, “So, you want me to pull the ball? Okay!”

This is the most idiotic take i have read in some time. Has he gained power?……….duh!. Eveyone knows its much harder to go deep to opposite field??? BTW he crunched one upper deck a couple of times. Its not even worth discusiing. The guy has the best swing in baseball and although that kind of pace is crazy, I dont think he will just lose it.. he is doing the same things but now the ball is going over the fence. Enjoy the best hitter in the game.

HT does have it as pretty far down the line. I just watched the video of it, and it does seem to be further toward the gap, a bit to the right of the big cluster he has on the graph Dave posted. But it was nowhere near dead center either.

And he does it again, solid shot to right-center.

I’m about three days late in coming back to this, Kincaid, but you’re just wrong about that May 21 HR (as is HTOnline, if that is indeed what it says). I was watching the game, and it was to just left of dead center. You can find the video online (at least theoretically–I can’t get it to work, but the description of the video even says “left-center”).

And then of course there was the one last night, well back into the upper deck of RF.

You can talk about his profile and such all you want, but if you watch him, he really is hitting the ball a lot harder. And *swinging* a lot harder. And the fact that his HR themselves aren’t going much farther (if true) doesn’t mean a lot if he’s hitting it that far four times as often. I’m about the biggest fan of this site and this sort of research that there is, but sometimes it really is as simple as it looks.

Yup. Moonshot to right. I thought immediately of this post as it soared deep into the (indoor) night.

Cutter middle-in went 10 rows back. In the upper deck.
