The MLB home run record is broken, here are the Cardinals best homers in 2017 - A Hunt and Peck

MLB: Kansas City Royals at St. Louis Cardinals Jeff Curry-USA TODAY Sports

On Tuesday night Alex Gordon blasted a baseball into the Toronto night (not sky, because dome). This was not just any home run, though. This was the 5,694th home run of the 2017 season, making it the home run-iest season of all time, besting 2000’s mark. The Cardinals have hit 182 of those dingers. So, in honor of the new home run record and for your viewing pleasure, here are some of my favorite Cardinals homers from this year:

This video is not embeddable for some reason, but here is the link to Randal Grichuk’s walkoff homer.

I could not find video for Yadier Molina’s home run hit while his brother, Bengie, broadcast, but that definitely made my list as well.
