How would you rule on this play? [View all]

While watching the Japan-Korea series that is being played in the Tokyo Dome, one of the Japanese batters hit a towering fly that looked like it was going to be a home run. But the ball went so high that it actually hit the dome, 180 feet above the playing field. That changed the ball's trajectory, and it landed in the seats in foul territory. The umpire ruled it as a ground rules double. But the Korean side appealed. What do you think was the final ruling?
