"In all the hitters who've come to the plate at the dome, only a handful of them have accomplished this impressive feat: muscling a ball into the upper deck at the Rogers Centre for a home run."
"Just 22 home runs have ever landed in the stadium's upper deck, 11 of them courtesy of Blue Jays players. Donaldson became the ninth Blue Jays player to accomplish the rare feat. Here's the full list of fifth deck home runs below."

Only 22 home runs have ever reached the Rogers Centre's upper (fifth) deck. Eleven of those were hit by Toronto Blue Jays players. Josh Donaldson recently joined the select group with a 435-foot homer into the fifth deck, becoming the ninth Blue Jay to accomplish the feat. Other recent fifth-deck shots include Alex Dickerson (446 feet), Edwin Encarnacion (463 feet) and Mike Napoli (451 feet). Hitting a ball into the stadium's upper deck remains a rare demonstration of power for hitters at the Rogers Centre.
