2) Fly ball ricochets off the concrete base of the flag at Minute Maid park and bounces over the fence.
3) Ball caught in stand in foul ground. Fan throws it back fair and over the outfield fence. (The ball did not hit the ground, and while it did initially leave the playing field in foul territory, it then reentered and left the playing field in fair territory).
4) Ball lands squarely on a discarded empty box of popcorn in left field and bounces over the fence.

I like the way you think.......
Lance Berkman tells a story of him throwing a baseball from in the corner of LF at the old Rice BB Field that went into an empty potato chip bag that was swirling around in the wind.
Needless to say, the batter wound up with an inside the park homerun, and coach Graham was not very happy with Lance (like it was his fault).
