Longest: There is obviously no accurate measurement from the past as there are several disputed answers as to who and where the longest Home run was: On April 17, 1953, Mickey Mantle is credited with what many consider to be the longest HR in baseball history. He is estimated to have hit a 565-foot home run at Washington's Griffith Stadium off Senators pitcher Chuck Stobbs http://www.historicbaseball.com/qanda.html
