I think at one time, if the ball hit the yellow line it was a home run, which leads to some confusion.

I remember the call when no one understood why an obvious HR was ruled a hit. I'd prefer it be a HR for hitting the yellow line but arbitrary rules are arbitrary.

I'll never forget when a Braves player hit a sure HR and it bounced off the Houston roof and it was ruled a foul(?). Pissed me off.
