BUG: Deep Foul Ball in US Cellular Field Counts as Home Run

[ChiTownKid]

When a deep foul ball is hit into the seats in left field in US Cellular Field, missing the foul pole to the left by a few feet, the game counts it as a home run. I've seen it twice now. I've tried to upload videos from the PS4 to YouTube for proof, but it won't let me. But believe me, this bug exists.

I posted it at The Show Nation, twice, but as I sense we're down to maybe one last patch, I'm hoping for some greater visibility. As the Sox are my favorite team, this bug really bums me out and, if it's not fixed, I'm afraid I will no longer be a customer. This breaks my heart, as I love the game, but this is a fundamental bug, and a game-breaker in every sense.

If you'd like to up-vote it on the official bug report page, the ID is 15223.

That's a tough one there. It does appear that the ball changed trajectory at the pole. It was literally millimeters away. I think that is more of a collision boundary thing, due to the taper of the foul poles. Tough call, either way. Was it reviewed?

FWIW, the ones that happened to me weren't quite that close. I'd say there was a distance of 3 or 4 feet between the ball and the pole. They were both clearly foul.

I'm impressed she caught it with her bare hands! Lol. Looked foul though but that's a tough call

They have all been in my favor,not had one go against me yet.

No not reviewed,why i asked in another thread if anyone had had a foul/HR reviewed as i have not seen one yet and the 3 close calls i have had seem like they would have been reviewed in past MLB TS games, that maybe there was a bug with the review not triggering.

Should have edited this video a bit.

I've had 2 or 3 HR/foul reviews this year.

Does it matter which foul pole?

Reason I ask is that Tommy Pham hit one down the RF line that was just foul and it was called foul.
