Giancarlo Stanton Literally Crushed a Baseball in the MLB All-Star Game

Giancarlo Stanton hit a 457-foot home run off Tony Gonsolin on an 0-2 count in the 4th inning of the 2022 MLB All-Star Game. Stanton absolutely crushed the ball, which was especially impressive considering how badly he missed on a first pitch slider

So anyway, the compression on the baseball at the point of contact, which lasted like a millionth of a second, is hilarious. It's one of those things where you know what a baseball feels like and know that they most definitely do not squish like this.
