    What is the exact rule? I thought it could hit the top of the wall and stay in play.

    There is a line (usually yellow) that runs along the top of the wall. if it hits above that, it's a HR.

    But what about when the yellow line IS the top of the wall?

    Why not make teams put a little beveled edge on the top of the wall so that any ball that hits on the top would be forced to go into the stands.

    And it would also make those steal home runs from over the wall a little more interesting...

    Rockies could win this whole thing.

    Stay tuned.

    This just in: Ubaldo Jimenez is pretty damn good.

    The lights went out on Philly in more ways than one. :thumb:

    What an amazing team. Nothing they do from here on would surprise me.

    Arizona/Colorado series should be a dandy.

    Hawpe got some considerable face time on the tube last nite. Other than getting picked off first, he had a pretty nice game.

    The amazing run continues. :thumb:

    I thought I had seen it all in 40+ years of watchng MLB, but the Rockies performance tops it all.

    Elway could announce he's coming out of retirement and it would be a 2nd page story.
