That Homer by Curiel is why Tennessee leads the SEC in HR most years

Fact

Any other park Derek would put that in the gap. That moment that field he was hitting to go yard.

It looked eerily similar to the grand slam Todd Walker hit against the Aggies in the 1993 CWS.

Kentucky isn’t small.

Didn’t Vandy turn theirs into a little league field as well?




All I know is if college baseball had a HR derby like the MLB does, they would definitely have it at Tennessee’s stadium every year.

What are you talking about? Where did that come from?
Field size
Left Field: 320 ft (98 m)
Left-Center Field: 385 ft (117 m)
Center Field: 390 ft (120 m)
Right-Center Field: 365 ft (111 m)
Right Field: 320 ft (98 m)

On top of that they play at about 900’ above sea level also helps it fly a little further.

Serious question bc I don’t know the answer and I realize things can be deceiving on camera but when they say a HR went 401 ft is that just based off trackman exit velocity and launch angle and not taking into account wind? It’s hard to imagine that HR that Chapman hit went 401. On TV it looked like it didn’t get over the fence by much more than the 365 that was painted on the wall. That ball looked like it would have been caught at Alex Box and at best off the wall.

yeah, temporarily.
they building something beyond RF, so during construction they moved the fences in and are allegedly moving them back after all the construction is done.
