Joey Gallo has a limited skillset. He strikes out a ton, but when he makes contact, the ball travels.

Well, he got hold of one on Sunday.

The Texas Rangers slugger demolished a Garrett Richards offering deep to dead center, the ball bouncing off the grass beyond the wall in no-man's land.

It was the second 490-foot home run - and 38th overall - Gallo has hit this season, according to ESPN's home run tracker. He previously did the deed on Aug. 1 against the Seattle Mariners.

Only Aaron Judge has hit a longer home run with his 496-foot bomb from early June.
