College game...Home team batter hits high fly ball to deep OF. Night time...no apparent wind.
OF drifts back to the wall, but isn't running at anything near a sprint. She gets under it, gets her glove up, and the ball falls on her forehand side about 3ft short of what looks like at least a 6ft OF fence. Ball bounces off her glove and over the fence. Scored as a HR (Home team at bat), but if she'd let the ball fall, it would have landed at the base of the wall for, at worst, a double.
Error or HR? Why?
