I agree, its not in play and in rule 8-5-I, a ball bouncing over the fence
is dead so I am comfortable in saying the ball is dead on a home run.
umpharp, according to 8-7-E the runner being assisted is out only if the ball is live. "The runner is out: When any offensive team member, other than another runner, physically assists a runner while the ball is live."
In SP (other than Senior's and Master's) this is all a moot point.
