Seattle Mariners prospect Lazaro Montes hit a 474-foot home run during Tuesday's game against the Texas Rangers at T-Mobile Park. The drive landed on the right-center field concourse during the fourth inning, narrowing the Texas Rangers lead to 4-3. According to team broadcast data, the home run is the longest recorded at the venue during the Statcast era, which began in 2015.
