OK. So ...

During the World Series, at Yankee Stadium, a New York Yankee appears to "knock one out of the park!"

But from nearby La Guardia Field, an Atlanta Braves fan and nephew of Ted Turner's, piloting Ted Turner's private 747-400F, fires his ABL at the baseball and fries it crisp --- it's ashes --- just before the baseball would have gone over the center field wall.

Is it a home run or not?

(For the purposes of discussion, disregard the forest fires set all along the turnpikes north to Poughkeepsie and the burning barricks roofs at West Point.)

Interference

Ground rules double.

No. Because the ball should be considered as hitting an object in the field of play. The fact that it disappeared afterward would be a matter for baseball theologians and their lawyers.

Result: possibly counting as a strike against the batter.

ROFL!
