Dusty Finish at Blue Jays game?

Yes, it's true (well, kind of). In front of a capacity crowd of maybe 750 people at SkyDome, the Blue Jays were tied at 2. Pretty boring game, though no different that the other four I've seen in person this season.

Then in the top of the ninth, Josh Phelps smacks out a two-run homer that looks like it might have gone foul.Still, the fireworks go off, the players run the bases and the crowd erupts (well, as much as a few dozen fans could). The score is 4-2 now.

THEN... the umpire overtuns the decision, insisting that the ball was in foul territory. AFTER the runs had gone up on the scoreboard. The crowd is none too pleased with the decision. Has to be the first time I've seen that, so late in the play at least.

And THEN.... Phelps ends up nailing an even better homer, and the score is once again 4-2. The Jays win a game! The Jays win a game! The Jays win a game!

Four wins in a row... this MUST mean we're headed for the pennant!!!
