Astros near another World Series, new blood helps to dominate Yankees
Chas McCormick struck the ball hard before going unconscious.
The way sportsmen react under pressure, particularly when hitting a 98 mph fastball out of the park.
He initially believed his swing against Gerrit Cole in the second inning was a foul ball.
Anthony Rizzo, the first baseman for the New York Yankees, was facing him with his large shoulders hunched.
The ball continued to travel for a further 330 feet to right field, which was more than enough to clear the wall that was 314 feet from home plate.
Long after the 47,000 spectators had taken their seats at Yankee Stadium on a late Saturday afternoon.
In a Game 3 of this American League Championship Series go-for-the-kill effort, McCormick had staked his team to a two-run lead.
He instantly recalled the dozen or so family members and friends, including his twin brother Jason and his girlfriend, who were watching from the stands as he rounded the bases.
Before running across teammates who entertained him with the "Chas Chomp," he waved to them as an old pro would.
With this being the team's sixth straight trip to the ALCS, McCormick is beginning to appear more at ease in his position, just as other players are beginning to take the lead.
