Nationals' Clint Robinson absolutely demolishes second-career home run
It took Washington Nationals first baseman Clint Robinson years to hit his first home run, but a week later he's hit his second, and it was an absolute moonshot.
In the top of the second inning in a scoreless game between the Nationals and the Tampa Bay Rays, Robinson must have been looking for one pitch on a 3-1 hitter's count, because he unloaded on it.
The 30-year-old turned on a 94-mph fastball, sending it high up into the rafters at Tropicana Field.
Robinson's solo shot measured in at 409 feet, but probably would have been recorded at a longer distance had it not gotten lost in the dome.
"That was a bomb," Bryce Harper said. "Being able to put something up there, a little 'Natural'-esque with the thunder and lightning on the outside. That was truly incredible. I went up to him and told him congrats, and you know, 'You punished that ball.' It was good to see."
