Dodger Stadium honors Kyle Schwarber’s 455-foot home run with a plaque in Right Field

The Dodgers have officially installed a plaque in right field at Dodger Stadium to commemorate Kyle Schwarber’s 455-foot moonshot off Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Game 3 of the NLDS.

You don’t see this every day… especially not for an opposing player but I guess when you hit a baseball so hard and so far that even the home team tips its cap, you’ve earned it.

Kyle Schwarber’s blast hit off the top of the pavilion roof, but the Dodgers decided that was good enough to count as “leaving the ballpark.” That’s how ridiculous the shot was and with the plaque now in place, Schwarber joins one of the most elite power-hitting clubs in baseball history.

Only other players to hit a ball completely out of Dodger Stadium:

• Willie Stargell (1969, ’73)
• Mike Piazza (1997)
• Mark McGwire (1999)
• Giancarlo Stanton (2015)
• Fernando Tatis Jr. (2021)

Kyle Schwarber is now the second left-handed hitter ever to hit one out of Dodger Stadium, joining Willie Stargell. That’s some pretty legendary company.

Shohei Ohtani nearly joined that group last year with a 473-foot shot that almost made it over the roof, but “almost” doesn’t get you a plaque. Schwarber did, and the Dodgers honored it less than 24 hours later, a rare move for a visiting slugger but a fitting tribute for one of the most absurd homers you’ll ever see.

I would never want this in Citizens Bank Park. An opposing playing getting honored? No chance, but I guess the Dodgers don’t really give a shit since they won the World Series last year, have the largest payroll in Major League Baseball, and literally just beat the Phillies in the NLDS, 3-1.

At the very least, I guess Kyle Schwarber left his mark at Dodger Stadium.

Phillies-Dodgers was the perfect reminder that October baseball is about moments, not numbers
