Talking about a runner advancing...
"Two bases, if a fair ball bounces
or is deflected into the stands outside the first or third base foul lines; or if it goes through or under a field fence, or through or under a scoreboard, or through or under shrubbery or vines on the fence; or if it sticks in such fence, scoreboard, shrubbery or vines;"
Doesn't say anything about intent anywhere that I've found, but it appears it was the right call.
