TAMPA -- Hunter Brown’s shoulders slumped as soon as Rays outfielder Josh Lowe made contact with his first pitch of the fifth inning Wednesday. That changeup landed beyond the center-field wall.

Brown’s next pitch, another changeup, came off of second baseman Brandon Lowe’s bat at a 47-degree launch angle.

At first glance, it looked like a popup. But as the ball kept drifting out toward right field, Brown threw his hands up into the air as if to say, “What gives?” He could only watch as another ball departed hitter-friendly George M. Steinbrenner Field. It was the highest launch angle on a home run this season.
