VIDEO: Royals fan catches controversial Moustakas home run
The Kansas City Royals jumped out to an early 2-0 lead during Game 6 of the ALCS, courtesy of a pair of solo home runs off Toronto Blue Jays starter David Price.
While Ben Zobrist's first-inning shot was a no-doubter, Mike Moustakas' homer the following inning was slightly more unclear.

Moustakas' ball was caught by a fan sitting in the right-field seats, before officially clearing the wall. The play was initially ruled a home run and the call was upheld following a review, which appeared to show the ball was on trajectory to clear the wall before being interfered with.
"I didn't know if it was a home run or not but they called that it is," Moustakas told reporters. "It was great."
The Royals entered Friday's game with a 3-2 series lead.
