The year 2002 never seems as long ago as it does when looking at TV footage from the era. It's almost like going from B&W to color - suddenly looks like 30 years passed in a single, technological instant.

@@phineas117 you barely see left-handed ppl do it. Most MLBers can't even hit a ball that far let alone during a game and let alone opposite field. The odds are astronomical.

So I guess I'm dumb but I didn't anticipate a baseball to float. Also, that boardwalk behind the stadium seems like a dangerous place to walk during a game...😳
I've walked that sidewalk dozens of times. Lots of people party down there, dock up the boat and light a grill to cook weiners or some ribs. It's a cool place and the police don't really enforce the drinking down there. That said... you are intimately aware there is a game going on, its only feet from the stadium (which has NO center field seating so you hear 100% of the noise). If a homerun was hit, you'd probably look up because you'd hear the crowd get 100x louder and cheering all of a sudden.
The Hardcore Proyect just watched that video, I don’t think that they can confirm if it was on the fly, they never show a camera angle of it going straight in
Ok don’t get me wrong, Josh Bell crushed that ball. But it went at least 20 feet further on the fly than any of the other ones. Can you say juiced ball?
2:05 Emergency room DR: what happened? Bike riders: Well doc we was riding my bike past the ball park and Bam lights out. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is why you wear a helmet when you ride Ha ha ha .
"One of the *loudest* homeruns you'll ever *see* "....um.... wait what? ....dude 😐🤔🤨 Garrett Jones damn near killed a baby right off the back of a bicycle with that shot... If you watch it back in slow-mo (0.25x) and consider the angle it hit the water, plus how high the riverwalk sits above the water level, it cleared that dude on the bike by less than 10 feet. If that guy was going 1 mph faster that day, he would have arrived 5 feet ahead of his position and got his 6-month-old knocked out of the dumb little baby seat and clean off the back of his bike into the river. Now THAT is a one-in-a-million shot. "Yeah, my infant son gets out of the hospital in a week, but I got him to sign the ball!!"
They should remove, or if possible relocate, the 2 or 3 trees right in the aerial route towards the river. They've grown big enough that they're going to swat down river shots soon if they haven't already, and that's a shame. It's such a cool feature of the ballpark. Don't ruin the rare potential of a river shot by letting a wall of 40 foot tall maple trees block incoming splashdowns. So stupid.

Yeah why does footage from 2000-08 look so shitty but literally any other era is fine

@@pickleman40 explained it perfectly.
It looked a lot better on TV back then than it does now... probably because everything was still recorded to tape until maybe 10 years ago.
Now those shots were Stargell-esque! I wonder how many home runs Stargell himself would have hit into the river?

Bell's was the longest one .
He actually bounced one into the river
davyt0247 if Bell did it wouldn’t be in this video. :/
@@elitespartan5378 yo I got a coupon for a free eye exam you need it? 2:46
2:06 Yo, do those tandem bikers even know how close they came to taking an MLB homer straight to the dome???
Imagine if a right handed hitter hit one into the river someday
Judge..
happened today, 7/22/19 st Louis cardinal playe rPaul Goldschmidt!!!!! GO GOLDY/ TIME TO FLY/ GO CARDS
@@phineas117 no it didn't. I've seen judge and Stanton hit some opposite field bombs with other of course, but no, paul didn't do that. Fake news.

Russell Scott it’s about 450 ft. A righty would need a corked metal bat to even have a chance
How hard is it to hit one into the river
Only four have landed in the river since PNC opened in 2001
Four have went into the river on the fly, approximately 30 have bounced in
Ibraheem Rao they mean on the fly
@@impittsburghpiratesfandont7867 I know
Pretty suprised how Barry Bonds didn't hit one
Considering that it's about 800 to 900 feet from home plate to the river yea pritty dang hard
Beautiful stadium, great city, diehard fans, legendary club but we have the worst owner in all of sports. #Nuttingsucks
I was there for Garrett Jones’ dinger! One of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen in person! #LetsGoBucs
watching the the ball go into the Allegheny river in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania never gets old
I’d dive in so quick to grab it
Why spend half the vid on the first homer
I live in Pittsburgh
Not quite McCovey cove
I'm surprised that not too many home runs have been hit in the Allegheny River.
Daniel Bazalar it’s like 450+ I think
There have been almost 30 on a bounce but only 4 on a fly
pittsburgh air is thicker
@@guyrandom1 Because of the pollution from those steel mills
it’s like 470 on the fly
Wow..
Such insane hits.
#LetsGoBucs
If the late great #8 were playing now, he'd turn that water into a baseball hatchery farm.
W.D.Stargell. !!
I’d never want to go into the Allegheny river 😂
My new favorite MLB video #LetsGoBucs
Hillary Clinton #LetsGoBucs
Awesome! Kind of like Oracle Park in San Francisco?
Josh Bell had the best one by far
Don't let this video distract you from the fact that the Dodgers will ONCE AGAIN fail in the playoffs.
Raymond 😂😂 yeah that's me. I remember and see you on the streams too.
HAHA Thank you for the reminder!
That didn’t age too well.

Sadly, Bob Nutting ruined this once proud ball club.

Nah, homers that far are pretty rare. You get a few that bounce off the concrete into the river, but most of them find the seats

No footage of the very first one hit into river by lance berkman of the astros also on the 5th game ever played in PNC stadium?
That's ridiculous. Most MLBers can't even hit a ball that far let alone in a game. Has to be 450 or more. I was there couple of times. Incredible!
How far is it?
Pirates pitcher Wells now has his fifteen seconds of fame.
Does it have to hit water on the fly to count?
Add Christian Yelich to the list
Jim Thome hit one with the White Sox.
Fuck ya bucco blasts!!!! I moved out west a few years back and good God do I miss this ballpark
Where is Kyle Schwarber´s Wild Card Home Run?
The Hardcore Proyect just watched that video, I don’t think that they can confirm if it was on the fly, they never show a camera angle of it going straight in
The Hardcore Proyect That wasn’t on the fly. Did you not pay attention to the video?
It hasn’t landed yet
Lit
What was the distance to Bell's homer?
472ft
@@MetalRob81 thanks
I’m a Yankees fan and don’t show other teams hitting home runs into the river. This should be a Pirates only video.
Ok don’t get me wrong, Josh Bell crushed that ball. But it went at least 20 feet further on the fly than any of the other ones. Can you say juiced ball?
If the late great #21 were standing in front of the Allegheny, he'd throw it all the way back.
2:44 holy
Oh hey a solo home run for Pedro...
Derek Dietrich hit two in the river in same game last month
On the hop maybe, these were on the fly. Its 443 to touch water down the line. Has dd touched 443 this year?
Hi
is the first one a pirates home run or an opponent's home run
Opponents by Houston in 02

Zeplinex45 one of them was on the fly

Please dont call it a floater.
its insane that this ball park was around during the steroid era, yet the majority of home runs hit into the alleghanny were more recent
Barely though, the first season at PNC was 2001, steroid era was over by 2004 but severely curtailed before then due to suspicions.
I thought Schwarber hit one in the river.
Probably bounced into the river, not on the fly.
