I was at the game last night sitting down the first base line with a few friends and I was thinking the same thing. That must have been the hardest hit ball off his bat in years. The pitch speed was 100 mph too. It was an impressive display of power.

CD now has 293 career home runs. Obviously he won't get to 300 this year, but it would be pretty cool if he hit number 300 and sailed off into the sunset.

Boy, was that fun to see. At long last, is this the catalyst? 

*Sigh* .....who knows. Nonetheless, I'll continue to be hopelessly (but hopefully not haplessly) optimistic.

Probably hit it cause he couldn't see it.

Nice attempt at correcting my post.

I don't really want him on the team until 2021.  But yes, it was nice to see a throwback moment.

Look, yeah, credit where it's due. He took a 100 mph fastball and cranked the sucker. It does not get more legit than that. 

Was it a cookie? Yeah, pretty much. But he misses those constantly. Not that time.

Sorry. 

I'm a comma, comma, comma, comma, Karma chameleon, but I occasionally make other grammatical errors.

It was on the inside quarter but maybe not as far inside as the pitcher  would have liked.  Also thigh high.  But more promising is the fact that (in my opinion) he got the bat head out much faster than he has all season.  I don’t think it was quite to 2013 level, but he’s been slow to get the bat around for the past 2 seasons and that time it seemed much quicker.  Maybe he’s finally made some changes.

I can’t remebr the last time I saw him drop the bat immediately because he knew it was gone

From the article:

“That was a knock against me when I came to Baltimore, that I liked to work out a lot,” Davis said, referencing both his batting-cage rituals and his grueling weight-lifting sessions.

This is probably the best thing Davis has done all year as an Oriole. Very cool.
