That is a reasonable expectation IMO for parks that are a lot smaller than MLB parks (on average).
With MLB, you are averaging the best of the best and only 32 teams... With college, you are averaging hundreds of teams most of whom have players that aren't great. It's not fair at all to compare the two.

The SEC is the best conference in college baseball...

The SEC has played 404 games total and teams have hit 270 homeruns for a 0.668 average HR's per game. And I'd assume many of those homeruns were against inferior competition.

You aren't going to sell me that the balls have been perfect for the sport and now the dead bats problem is okay.



At the end of the day I just want college baseball to be a generally accepted sport. Right now it isn't a major sport. I don't think it will improve with the amazing bunting skills! And I am a fan of exciting basepath moves and the chess game within the sport.
