Nomar Mazara hit a home run 491 feet and leads all of baseball in distance, for now. Statcast host Mike Petriello and national editor Matt Meyers examine the different elements that contribute to batted ball distance, how to quantify balls that can be caught in the outfield and which teams improved this statistic from last season. They also try to explain Jose Fernandez's bizarre stretch in which he's striking out hitters at a historic pace while also getting hit harder than anyone in baseball.
