The Oakland Athletics lost again on Friday night to the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field, but it wasn't without one major highlight.
In the ninth inning down 6-2, infielder Brett Lawrie stepped up and showed off his powerful build by absolutely annihilating a pitch from David Hernandez for a two-run homer to left field.
The blast was so impressive that A's play-by-play announcer Glen Kuiper described it simply with the phrase 'Oh, my goodness gracious' on the broadcast. Take a look:
The homer was later revealed to have traveled 470 feet - definitely no cheap shot.
Lawrie hasn't hit a ton of home runs this season as that was only No. 13, but he's made them count.
