Yankees’ Spencer Jones denied hit after ALDS catwalk drama
MLB teams might need to reconsider playing indoor games after the 2026 postseason drama.
The Yankees' Spencer Jones was denied a hit on Monday night during the ALDS playoff series after a high drive struck the Tropicana Field catwalk. The contact allowed the ball to return down and be caught by Tampa Bay right fielder Victor Mesa Jr., resulting in an out. This incident echoes a similar situation from earlier in the week when the Milwaukee Brewers' star Ty France also had a flyout hit the roof of American Family Field, leading to an out.
The Yankees are currently leading the series 1-0 against the Rays. The ALCS matchup between one of the AL East teams and either the Chicago White Sox or Cleveland Guardians is set to take place on Wednesday, Oct. 7.
