Angels' Shohei Ohtani launches longest career home run for 30th of season

Los Angeles Angels two-way star Shohei Ohtani capped off his brilliant month of June with the longest home run of his career Friday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Ohtani finished the month of June with 15 home runs, 29 RBI’s and a batting average of .394.

"I hear about all those 500-foot shots from guys in the past, but I don't think I'm ever going to see one," Angels manager Phil Nevin said, according to MLB.com."Because I [don’t think it’s possible] to see one hit farther than the one I saw. "The calculations before and now are a little different, but I don't think there's a ball that can be hit farther than that one. Just awesome."
