Brandon Moss added his name to the St. Louis Cardinals' history books Thursday when he took Philadelphia Phillies starter Jerad Eickhoff deep to right field for a long home run.
The ball traveled 462 feet according to the Cardinals - although Statcast had it calculated at 438 feet - thus becoming the longest home run by a left-handed hitter in the history of Busch Stadium III.
Moss' dinger was also the fourth-longest home run in the stadium's history, as well as the fourth-longest long ball of the season.
