  • I still don't get how you can time it enough that it goes straight and not left or right...

    Wonder if this is going to end up just being a draw after all is said and done.

    540ft with Matt. I hit it dead center, directly over the pitcher’s head. That’d make the highest possible score 6480.
    Official rules (http://8bitbaseball.pearljam.com/assets/Pearl-Jam-Home-Run-Hitting-Contest-Official-Rules.pdf) state the maximum as 6492. So, 541 ft. appears to be the max.

    The top 10 should face off in a real home run derby vs David Wells or Jack McDowell to decide the winner.

    The rules say the person with the top score wins the prize.  If a tie it goes to whoever got the score first.

  • This is fun. So far I've had the best total with Stone: 4,022 sq. ft. But my longest HR was with Ed: 519 sq. ft.
    And the midi Given to Fly is a nice touch!

    I've always sucked at video games.

    Was.  Was fun.  I knew it's only a matter of time before someone cheats.  Obviously didn't read the rules, though. LOL

    12 homers is easy but not sure how you are belting out these 515 averages.  I think the closest I have got is the first six homers averaging about 518 but can't keep it going.

    How do you get 12 homers easy?

    There ya go
