Watch out, Giancarlo Stanton.
Nexen Heroes first baseman Park Byung-ho leads the Korea Baseball Organization with 39 home runs. Park hit two on Friday, and he absolutely crushed the first one.
Park destroyed a baseball in the third inning of the Heroes’ 8-2 victory over the Doosan Bears, launching it 475 feet. It cleared the enormous scoreboard in center field, which is estimated as being 65 feet high.
