Home runs remain the best part about watching baseball. Nothing quite compares to watching a player crush a baseball over the fence.
But the best part about baseball’s modern era is that all home runs are being tracked. MLB calculates bat speed, exit velocity, launch angle, and distance for each hit. All that information is accessible at Baseball Savant.
BetMGM is getting in on the action of the long ball with Big Fly Fridays. Every Friday for the rest of the year, if the player you bet to hit a home run launches the longest home run of the day, you win a share of $100,000 in bonus bets.
With that in mind, here is an updated list of the longest home runs for the 2025 MLB season:
