This is the one time I belive that a record should have an asterisk
*Steroid enhanced record
I think that the increased pitching speeds do make the ball jump off the bat quicker and somewhat farther flight,but Mantle,Killabrew,Boog Powell and others were capable of 500 ft home runs with slower pitching.THe radar gun hasnt really been used all that long in baseball. Whose tosay that Spann, Dizzy Dean and other greats before radar guns didn't throw as hard
