Fly Ball Hitting The Foul Pole

Question?

Jim from Warren, MI, asks:

A fly ball hits the foul pole, is it foul?

If a ball hits the foul pole it is actually fair and, if it hits it above the wall, it is a home run! If you look straight down the foul line, which, if the ball touches, is actually fair, you will notice that the pole is aligned with that line. So yes, the foul pole is actually a fair pole.
