Mets’ Tyrone Taylor hit the cover off a baseball that bizarrely went from foul to fair

This was super strange.

The New York Mets and Atlanta Braves are playing an intense double-header to determine which teams will make the postseason.

Fans knew the vibes were going to be weird when many realized the smart strategy was for both teams to independently forfeit one of the two games as one way to ensure both teams made the playoffs.

The game got really wonky early in the third inning when Mets outfielder Tyrone Taylor somehow hit the actual cover off the baseball on an infield hit.

Due to the weird bounce caused by the cover coming off, the ball went from likely going foul to barely staying within the lines.

This bizarre trajectory allowed Taylor to beat the throw to first base as he reached safely on an infield single.
