Why does the MLB accept those baskets in the outfield at Wrigley? They line the walls in the bleachers, and yesterday a “home run” bounced off the top of the wall and back, but because it landed in the basket, it was called a home run. If the baskets weren’t there it would have bounced back into play and would be a double.
Shouldn’t the wall be the deciding factor on these things? Or do batters just have to accept that the probably two foot wide basket is the indicator of where the park ends and the home run begins?
p.s. kerry looked good, eh?
