Broadmoor backed up to someone's back yard.
McKinley's didn't have a fence, it was part of the football field back in the 80's

No lie: Avenger Field in Audubon Park, home for Newman and Lusher and maybe more, homeplate faces Southwest.
Cannot play when the sun is setting because it endangers the batter
Recently built too; amazing incompetence.

Still does, and trees overhanging centerfield, probably 10 feet into the playing field.
Tara's field has HUGE holes beneath the left field fence. If the ball gets there, there's no "if it gets under"....It's getting under.
Years ago, either Berwick or Morgan City had light poles in right field, two of them and no right field fence. The ball was in play until it rolled to the school building which was probably 450+ feet, but the poles were at about 285, so they came into play.
Baker's field, at least until about 2 years ago, had no fence along the right side, just an imaginary line from the end of the dugout to the outfield fence.

Short to left too. I used to hate when it was my turn to try and patch up the holes in that chicken wire fence.
Pretty sure 1 or 2 of my HRs my senior year actually went through a hole in that fence.
Also, I vaguely remember St. Paul CF either didn't have a fence or it was really far but was an old backstop from a practice field?
