Today’s Procrastination Question:

If an outfielder falls over the outfield fence but still catches the fly ball, is it a homerun or out?

A: Batter’s out, but runners on base move up a base. (source)

As always I’m obligated to answer the question before continuing with my normal obligations.

Time: 13 minutes.

Today’s question comes to us from my subconscious, via the following train of thought:

[something]

me playing softball in a park in DC

me swinging like Gary Sheffield

that guy who imitates famous swings

did he imitate Willie McGee?

could I find video of Willie McGee?

could I find video of Ozzie Smith’s greatest defensive plays?

the Japanese outfielder who climbed the outfield fence to steal a homerun

what if he had fallen over?
