Jorge Soler hilariously stopped running after he didn't realize he just hit a no-doubt home run

When Braves outfielder Jorge Soler is at his best, he's one of baseball's top power hitters. If anyone knows what a home run feels like off the bat, it's probably Jorge Soler.

That's what made the confusion during Thursday's game against the Reds so hilarious.

Batting in the sixth inning with runners on the corners, Soler crushed a slider over the center-field wall and into the bullpen. Off the bat, Soler seemed to think it was a homer. But once he rounded first base, he started to doubt himself. He stopped between the two bases out of confusion, not realizing that the ball had left the yard.

And sure, Great American Ball Park allows its share of cheap home runs, but this one traveled 400 feet at 101.1 mph off the bat. Soler didn't need to question himself after that one.

The broadcast did catch up with the Braves outfielder later in the inning, and he just said that he didn't think he got all of it and lost sight of the baseball.
