Maybe. Depends on if the umpire judges it to be an intentional act. Delayed dead ball. All runners must advance at least 3 bases on a batted ball that strikes equipment detached from its proper place. (ASA 8-5-F-1).
I'd have a hard time believing the fielder did not do it intentionally.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
