Watch Ramos crush first-ever right-handed Splash Hit homer

Watch Ramos crush first-ever right-handed Splash Hit homer originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

Giants outfielder Heliot Ramos did something every right-handed hitter who has stepped foot in Oracle Park has wanted to do.

Ramos connected for the first-ever Splash Hit homer by a right-handed batter, hitting a game-tying solo shot in the bottom of the ninth inning in the Giants’ 4-3 10-inning loss to the San Diego Padres on Sunday.

Ramos’ blast cleared the right field Arcade by a good distance, landing in McCovey Cove, where it was collected by … McCovey Cove Dave.

Amazingly, Ramos told reporters just a few days ago that he would like to be the first right-handed hitter to hit a Splash Hit.

The game-tying homer was the 105th Splash Hit by a Giants player since Oracle Park opened in 2000.

Ramos, who went to his first MLB All-Star Game this season, now has 21 homers this year.

In a lost season, the Giants and their fans still were able to find a glimmer of happiness in Ramos’ historic homer.
