Four Hundred And Fifty-Eight Feet


(Conversation overheard yesterday after Adrian Gonzalez hit the longest home run in Petco Park history, a 458-foot smash to right center off the Buccos' Ross Ohlendorf.)

Brian Giles: Nice bomb, big guy. Longest ever at Petco.

Adrian Gonzalez: Thanks, man. That even cleared the sandbox.

Brian: Yep. Looks like between 457 and 459 feet. (pause) Hey, can I grab your ass?

Adrian: Maybe later.
