From The Babylon Bee -

"Ripley reportedly walked up to the plate in the bottom of the 6th, pointed his bat toward the left-field wall looming 130 feet in the distance, and let her rip, sending the ball rocketing over the fence and into a parking lot as the fans cheered and his coach yelled out, “Attaboy, Nate! Good job, bud"!

Man Identifying As 6-Year-Old Crushes Game-Winning Homer In Tee-Ball Championship

Enjoy the silliness, but it won't surprise me if it happens for real soon.

If, and when it happens, the ball can just identify as foul to negate the dinger.

Problem solved.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer was learning karate and competing against little boys.

I can't stop laughing at the description of what happened in the article. This can't be real.

“Attaboy, Nate! Good job, bud!”
LOL
