They need to paint lines on the inside of the roof. That way Blue will be able to tell whether the ball hits on the fair or foul side.
Can someone please tell me how many games now have been decided by weird calls? Balls bouncing off batters. Balking in runners. Balls bouncing off the ceiling. What's next? I hesitate to suggest anything for fear that it might come about. Though in another forum, when RJ got the perfecto, there was a heated discussion of birds intercepting pitched balls. Also, Ron Swoboda once took the field with a batting helmet on his foot becuase he was a little ... displeased .... with his performance at the plate and kicked his helmet and got his foot stuck. This was almost 40 years ago. I dunno what Blue woiuld do about it nowadays.
