WMB - Sit 2. Foul ball as soon as it touches the fence. Hard sell - you bet! The best you can do is start getting as close to the fielder as you can so that you are right there to make the call. Throw the hands up and start yelling FOUL as soon as the ball touches the fence. Obviously, you saw the ball touch the fence, but you did not mention how far away from the play you were. A big part of selling a call is being in the right place.
Kono's twist - Ball touched the fence, so it cannot be caught for an out. If the ball stays inside the fence, live ball, play on. If the ball is touched by the fielder, then hits the top of the outfield fence and bounces over the fence, I'm going to say 4 base award.
I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong!
