VIDEO: Bobby Bradley's 1st Career Bomb Was Hit Harder Than Any Lefty's Bomb in Home Run Derby
By Ryan Flores
Coming into Saturday night, Cleveland Indians designated hitter Bobby Bradley had yet to hit a home run in his first 12 games in the majors. That all changed when he absolutely annihilated a home run off of Minnesota Twins pitcher Tyler Duffey.
of the 70 HRs hit by LHH during last week's HR Derby at Progressive Field, 0 of them were hit as hard (113.5 MPH) and only 2 were hit as far (457 feet) as #Indians rookie Bobby Bradley's first career dinger last night:pic.twitter.com/zxN1GidnVr

Bradley's first career round-tripper was a blast to remember, traveling 457 feet with an exit velocity of 113.5 mph.
Of all of the homers that left-handed hitters destroyed during the Home Run Derby, none of them were hit as hard as Bradley's first home run, and only two traveled further. Bradley will always be proud of his first home run, but now he's got even more reason to be proud of this mammoth shot.
