The Toyota Truck appears to be in Dunn, Giancarlo, Wily Mo zone.....the sign is pretty reachable for most power hitters.

Might be the reason they traded Juan Francisco. He could have reached it.

Internet Explorer?

I think of that old Bruce Springsteen song. GoKart Cozart was checking out the weather chart. Seeing if it was safe outside.

Soriano hit one right about where that sign is now, a handful of years ago.

Sounds like a great song.

They did a study on where the sign was originally. It proved that it was physically impossible to hit the sign. The bat or ball would fail before the distance could be reached. Oddly it was moved shortly after that.

I'd rather they put it in a really reachable part of the park but make it smaller. Just so we know there's a legit chance of that truck being won.

How could it be impossible as long it was reachable?

It was something like 600 feet away. The bat or ball would explode before you could produce that kind of distance.
