Why Shohei Ohtani Lost First Inside-the-Park HR vs. Angels
Shohei Ohtani appeared to hit an inside-the-park home run during a game against the Los Angeles Angels, but the play was ultimately ruled a triple after review. The ball hit netting attached to the outfield wall and bounced back onto the field, leading to confusion about whether it was a home run or a live ball. The official scorer charged right fielder Jo Adell with an error, and the run was counted under MLB rules governing live balls.
