- The drive is the longest by a Tiger since Statcast began tracking in 2015, surpassing the 467-foot marks by J.D. Martinez and Jeimer Candelario.
- Statcast comparisons place the slam tied with Giancarlo Stanton’s 471-footer for second-longest tracked grand slam, trailing Kyle Schwarber’s 473-footer.
- The homer capped a surge in Greene’s breakout season, lifting him to 32 home runs and 99 RBIs.
