It's clearly a fair ball, I finally watched closely and found the baseball. In the video, the guys on the very top row of the bleachers reach out to catch the ball and they almost snag it. Those seats are in fair territory.

In a situation with a strong crosswind is it where the ball was as it cleared the field of play, or where the ball lands? A foul pole could help resolve the issue except in this case the ball looks to be above the foul pole. The ball may in fact had been in foul territory at some point, but not when it landed.

The rule is where it leaves the field of play.

That HR was launched at 110 mph EV and at 27 degrees. A deep shot at 446'and high enough a gentle breeze could have easily moved it back into fair territory.
He got most of that one!

Definitely, and it was a pretty strong breeze. I was sitting directly behind the plate so I didn’t have a great angle. I thought for sure it was going foul, but the breeze was definitely straightening the path out. Still, that ball was so incredibly high when it cleared the field that I had no idea on fair or foul until I saw Travis jump.

If you got that from Dam Analytics that was his homer from Friday night. They had this one at 36 degree launch and only 368' which makes more sense seeing where this one lands. 446' down the line would be out on the sidewalk. HR #28

Am I looking at the wrong thing? It seems to me that between 7 and 8 seconds a ball drops from the sky just a short distance to the right (from the batter's perspective) of the outfield bleachers. Isn't that Bazanna's ball?
If so, it is clearly inside the fair/foul line. Look at the angle of the foul line on the field and extend it to the point from home plate that would equal the distance that Bazanna's ball traveled. If you do so, you will see that Bazanna's ball is in fair play by several degrees, even where it hits.

I thought it was foul live, but the wind definitely blew it back. It started foul off of the bat.

The Bazz blast - Metrics
446' with 110 E.V. and 27 degree launch (ideal).
That thing was growing hair on the way out.
