I did a screen capture with the twitter video, then zoomed in.

But in fairness, looking at that photo, you CAN reach over the wall.


Now look at the pic you posted. It looks like the kid’s wrist is over the bleacher barrier. His arm isn’t fully extended over the chain link. That’s a home run.

It looks like it’s halfway between his wrist and his elbow. The distance between your elbow and wrist is the same as the size of your foot. Let’s say 12” in length just to be generous. So half of that is 6”. He has an 8” glove webbing. So 14” of length. The bleacher fence and outfield wall are -3’ apart. That means he was not here the wall.
