Giants' Brandon Crawford: Robbed of home run by fan
Crawford went 2-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI in Thursday's loss to St. Louis.
Crawford appeared to have hit a two-run home run in the ninth inning, but the call was overturned after the umpiring crew determined there was fan interference. It was a controversial call as the fan's catch stopped the ball from hitting off of the top of the tin right field wall at AT&T Park, which would have still remained a homer. Crawford was understandably upset after the game, telling Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay that "there's no way there's conclusive evidence that it wouldn't have been a homer. For somebody to reach onto the field of play in right field, they would have had to lie down flat and have somebody hold their feet." Even though the slugging shortstop didn't get credited with the homer, he has still performed very well this month with a .292/.364/.469 slash line through 28 August games.
