Hitting a home run in baseball is one of the most popular aspects of the game and it certainly gets the crowd in the stadium on their feet. Some of the most legendary players of the game have been big home run hitters, including one of the most famous MLB stars of all time, Babe Ruth. While playing for the New York Yankees in 1921, Babe Ruth hit a home run that measured 575 feet, making it the longest home run in Major League Baseball history.
