What if a player climbs the wall and goes over it and then catches the ball in home run territory or foul territory, is that an out? ( I know it'll never happen but im curious...

that is one strange contortion. I don't understand it.
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he'll drown because you forgot to teach him to swim.

What if aliens come and land on the field and use their invisibility rays to disguise themselves and they hit the ball out of the fielders hand as he's trying to catch it and then they trip his legs and he cant get it and the runner tags up, but gets lost on his way to home and starts running the opposite way and then he runs so fast that he catches on fire and then pink elephants run on the field and pigs start flying overhead, but these arent just normal pigs, they are x-ray vision pigs with mad baseball skills and they land on the field and start hitting homeruns off the opposing pitcher who has a bionic eye and a bionic arm and throws 200 mph changeups! And then they realize that all the people on the field are actually robots being manipulated by Bud Selig for his own personal profits and gains??!!
Anyone got the official ruling on that?

I hear Arod's got a good shrink. I bet he'd give you the number.
Yes doctor, I am sick. Sick of those who are spineless. Sick of those who feel self-entitled. Sick of those who are hypocrites. Yes doctor, an army is forming. Yes doctor, there will be a war. Yes doctor, there will be blood.....

Is this a homerun or not?
Some might consider the baserunner safe because Sheff landed on a couple of beers, though!!!
Seriously though, it's an out. Not sure about the tag-up rule though. That's a good point.
