Suggestion: Calculate HR distance directly after determining an HR has been hit

Reason: Smarter sounding PBP. Here is a recent example, with M's Rule providing the variables. This HR was an epic blast and the guy called for it and jumped for it.

here's the pitch. . .
here's a swing. . .
hammered. . .
[235-12163]toward the gap in right field . . .
[NIB]Bowling calls for it. . .
[277-7394]Bowling leaps . . .
and he . . .
can't get it!
HOME RUN for Dunn!
[280-10318]that shot was measured at 453 feet
Adam Dunn Belts a solo home run!
