It's virtually impossible to drive a ball into the gap in this park because of its size. Even on a rope, the OF is playing so shallow they can cut it off before it gets to the wall.

Doesn't make sense. If play shallow-defenders have less time to get to ball & cut it off so more balls would roll near fence Ex. Play infield in-raises batting avgs nearly 100 pts

Playing OF shallow would limit bloop singles but might allow some to be driven over their heads
