The outfield fence is about 10 ft tall with a yellow line at the top edge. The foul pole was white and extends up another 10 feet or so above the edge of the fence.

There was no question that the ball left the yard. The only question was fair or foul. As I said, it looked clearly fair from my vantage point. It was one of those things where it looked so clear from where I was, that I was stunned when he called it foul.

Still, I'm not arguing his call. I'm merely raising the question of possible overruling.

Actually, one of our other coaches who was in a different part of the stadium at the time, said he thought it was foul. Isn't it amazing how much a slight change in angle or sightline can affect your perspective?
