Another titanic blast by dick allen. It often makes we wonder. how a pitcher who throws 100mph and is borderline hall of fame worthy gets in because he’s a power pitcher yet Dick Allen who may be the strongest batter ever and has his some of the longest home runs in the history of the and has hall of fame numbers does not get in. One is rewarded for his power but the other is not.
Somebody help! I remember long ago as a child being at a Sox game with my big brother when Dick Allen homered off the centerfield scoreboard. The scoreboard lights said that Allen was only the third player to do this – the other two being Babe Ruth and Hank Greenberg. Did this really happen or is my memory wrong? If it did happen it would have to been hit way over 500′.
