Alex Jones hit what looked to be a deep flyout in the Greensboro Grasshoppers’ (Marlins Single-A affiliate) game against the Kannapolis Intimidators (White Sox Single-A affiliate) on Sunday night at First National Bank Field.
But the ball ricocheted off the Kannapolis center fielder, and then off the left fielder, before landing over the fence! That made for a hilarious, pinball-esque home run:

Certainly not your typical dinger, but Jones will take it.
That play happened just one day after the Albuquerque Isotopes won on a walk-off Dustin Garneau homer that bounced off the glove of Trayce Thompson (yes, Klay’s brother). And then there’s of course the home run bouncing off Jose Canseco’s video 24 years ago:
