    If a pitched ball is given considerable Sudden Unintended Acceleration --
    from the pitcher and fielding teams point of view any way -- and the ball
    hits the Toyota sign on the fly, will it be called a "runaway home run?"

    I certainly hope it doesn't work like that. The way that looks is an abomination to the sanctity of Wrigley Field. There are many other ways to drive sponsorship that are much more subtle.
