    How are the home runs measured accurately in the major league baseball home run derby and what is the longest home run recored in major league baseball history?

    Question #20464. Asked by Charles.

    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
