      Well, yes, being at that time. There were rules now that did not exist then. In fact, it was because of those bizzar moments, like this one, that created the rules.
      If this had happened in the modern day, which highly doubt (number of reasons). That ball would have been ruled as a ground rule double. As the ball was out of play after hitting the ground or in the case of Wrigley Field, with the Ivy Wall. The ball lost in plants...and yes, this is a real rule. And Fenway has some weird rules with the Green Monster, which isn't as big as it used to have been.

      Basically... when you 'full swing' and wind up just barely make contact with the ball it'll either foul off to the side or occasionally take a digger into the dirt directly infront of the plate and just spin in place. This was always referred to as a "full swing bunt" due to the end result of the action of the swing being what normally results from an intentional bunt.

    I think in the short lived Federal League, another infield home run happened, when the umpires got the bright idea of piling the extra baseballs behind the pitcher's mound.
    The batter hit a sharp grounder past the pitcher into the pile ricocheting them everywhere, and he sprinted around the diamond in the chaos.

Also that Flag Pole is still standing to this day at The Corner who which was almost turned into Condos after The Old Barn Tiger Stadium was torn down. Thankfully those plans fell through and Baseball continues to be played at the place Detroiters and Tigers have played since 1895.

  • @HayTatsuko

    Had a very similar thing happen in a high-school baseball game back in 1988. Our team's chief home-run slugger buried the ball six inches deep into the opponents' recently-bemudded field, about ten feet in front of home plate, and trotted around the bases gleefully while our archrivals frantically tried to locate said ball. After tapping a toe on home plate, he cheekily retrieved the ball and flipped the sodden thing to the opposing pitcher. Good times. Pity it was spoiled a few innings later by the same slugger having an unfortunate incident with the other team's catcher on a play at home plate -- he tried to jump over the catcher and caught him upside the head with a knee instead, knocking the poor guy right out -- but not before that catcher tagged him out. Was a helluva game. Sumter Academy Eagles vs. Marengo Academy Longhorns, two west-central-Alabama private/segregation academies -- neither of which are still in existence.
