It happened the same night as the Jerry Meals call. It points out questionable HRs should be allowed to play out. It showed the limitations of replay. There was a side view on the Houston telecast that showed it never cleared the wall and they also showed an indentation on the padding where it first struck. Truth be told, it was easier to just call it a HR than to have to worry about where to place the runners.
