Video: Yankees' Dewayne Wise makes disputed catch in stands
The play occurred with two outs in the seventh inning, when the Cleveland Indians' Jack Hannahan hit a pop fly toward the left field stands. Wise ran toward the ball and tumbled into the crowd in his attempt to catch the ball at Yankee Stadium.
What happens next would make five-time Academy Awards host and Yankee fan Billy
Wise was helped out of the stands and immediately ran toward the dugout as if it were the third out of the inning. Umpire Mike DiMuro was fooled in thinking Wise made the catch and called it an out when he actually dropped the ball.
"What was I supposed to do, run back to left field?" Wise said. "I saw him looking at my glove so I just got up, put my head down and ran off the field."
Wise pumped his glove like the ball was in it and met shortstop Derek Jeter for a high-five.
