Possibly. Mickey Mantle's "longest home run" of September 10, 1960, was measured at 643 feet after the ball stopped rolling. The longest measured home run in MLB measured where it first hit the ground was by Babe Ruth on July 18, 1921, at 575 feet. Josh Gibson is said to have hit a home run at 580 feet, and another in 1934 that was hit out of Yankee Stadium; he was in the Negro League and so are not part of MLB statistics. Geoff Long hit one at the first Busch Stadium (Sportsman's Park) in St. Louis that cleared the left field light tower. Reggie Jackson hit one that bounced off a light tower in Detroit. Dave Nicholson hit a home run that cleared the roof and an alley before landing on a softball field near Comiskey Park.
