The ball hit the top of the yellow line and then hit the metal that sits below the Service Chevrolet ad (it has ragincajuns.com on it.) The ball then came back onto the field.
Jay, if it just hits yellow line and not the metal behind, that’s live ball no HR, right?
I don’t think you can tell from the video of it hit the metal behind.

It’s my assumption that yellow line is padded like the wall itself. That ball did not cause any dent or indentation into the yellow line and bounced off like it hit something solid. In my opinion, it was a HR.

You can tell by the ricochet that the ball did not hit the padding. IMO, clearly a home run.
Its not a ground rule issue. Its a rule issue. If a ball hits the yellow line and remains in fair play it is not a homerun
Just curious if the yellow signifies nothing why have it atop your wall? Just make it solid. Many parks have a yellow strip that signifies a home run. Granted it’s usually on a higher wall.
