We've already addressed the Cubs buffoonery today, so let's get to the business of the field, especially Fernando Tatis Jr. making a baseball a moon rock.

Yes, the ball did land on top of the pavilion just above the bleachers. It was apparently to beat traffic.
Statcast reported that this one traveled 467 feet. This means it must have been shorter than Tatis by about 200 feet.
It was a huge home run, Padres Ha Seong Kim said to reporters on Thursday night about Tatis 42nd Bomb. It's my 42nd visit to it. It amazes me each time.

Here's a short list of Dodger Stadium players: Tatis (twice), Giancarlo Stanton and Mark McGwire. Dodger Stadium was built in 1962. That's 59 years ago.
Jayce Tingler, Padres manager Jayce Tingler said that everyone was in shock at the Tatis' second-longest home run. It is amazing to think back on some of the players who have been here over time. It was not only impressive during the day, it was also impressive at night when the ball doesn't travel as far.

The Padres are disappointed that this kinda tear in the space/time continuum will not count for anything other than the highlight. As the Po ds were on their way to losing another one to the Dodgers, it was disappointing. This is what happens when Vince Velasquez has to be started again, as all other starters have been added on The Walking Dead.
Tatis won't be going anywhere. Most people still believe that the Padres are the Dodgers closest rival. Too much is returning, and it won't get as bad or as hurt again. Maybe Tatis Jr. will hit one to Narnia next time. It'll be part of a reel that will make San Diego memorable.
