## Resource

Oneil Cruz just smashed a baseball so hard it didn’t just clear the park—it rocketed into the Allegheny River, clocking in at 110.8 mph and projected at 450 feet, tying him for the most “splashdowns” in Pirates history. With 23 hits over 110 mph this season and two of MLB’s hardest-hit balls, Cruz remains cool under pressure, treating each homer like just another routine blast. His river-bound blast helped spark a walk-off win against the Twins, who also had a ball end up in the river that night—making it a rare, historic night for both teams. Cruz’s secret? Just keep grinding, stay light on off days, and never let the hype get to him. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
