This. There is an optical illusion due to when the screenshot was taken making it look like the yellow line will end up in L-CF gap seats.

When one looks at the shadow, as Markus says, and the left fielder it starts to make sense. IE that yellow line, not frozen in a screenshot, is going to move along the same track to LF. Draw an imaginary line down from the end of the yellow line to the shadow of the ball on the field and it puts it in perspective. In motion it will work, frozen it looks off.
