San Diego Padres And San Francisco Turn Mexico City Clash Into Home Run Derby

Thus far in 2023, we've seen some incredible plays, games and individual performances as we approach the one month mark of the season, and on Saturday night down in Mexico City, we may have seen the wildest game of the season to this point.

In a matchup between the San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants, we saw a whopping 11 combined home runs and 27 runs in a game that ended up 16-11, and if this continues, Mexico City is going to be in for an absolute treat.

Among those 11 home runs, we saw 10 balls hit over 400 yards, and while elevation has a lot to do with that, it was still a thrilling contest between two teams that have put on a show in 2023, with more yet to come as we build towards the summer.
