The ball never hit the fence. It’s just an optimal illusion. The ball landed directly on the grass. It was an opposite field shot and the way the bullpen is set up plus the angle of the camera, it looks like it hit something but it didn’t. If you want more proof: the announcers are not in awe and the fans in the bleachers don’t look up. Also those who retrieve the ball start running toward the landing spot before it actually lands because they know they are close to the ball.

Here is a enlarged slow- motion frame by frame video that shows the ball deflect off the top of the fence and change direction's.
