If you get on Google Earth, scroll to the old Alex Box. You can click on TOOLS and the RULER. If you click on home plate and then drag the mouse pointer around ouside the outfield wall, you can see exactly how far it is to some of these locations from home plate.

Shortest distance from home plate to get it on top of one of the apartments is 540 ft going out in left field.

Shortest distance to the track parking lot is about 690 ft dead center.

Off the side of the admin building would be 600 ft going out of right field.

Hawpe hit one foul in the SEC tournament that emptied both dugouts when it left. Major bomb.
