College baseball star Jac Caglianone went viral on Tuesday for the massive home run he hit.
Caglianone’s Florida Gators were facing Jacksonville at Condron Family Ballpark and won 12-1 in 7 innings. Caglianone was batting in the bottom of the fourth with a runner on second, nobody out and his Gators leading 4-0.
The two-way slugger took a fastball up-and-in and clobbered it over the right-field scoreboard.
JAC BASHES ONE OVER THE SCOREBOARD!

The ball was estimated to have traveled 516 feet. That’s some serious power.
Caglianone is developing into potentially the No. 1 prospect ahead of the MLB Draft. He has homered in seven straight games for Florida, which is a program record. He also has a 15-game hitting streak. The homer was his 21st of the season.
Caglianone also has gone 4-0 with a 3.89 ERA as a pitcher this season for the Gators.
