I'm aware of their existence (mainly bc it's cried about on here so often), but I've never watched Crews make a great catch in CF and thought, "man that would have been more enjoyable if that ad wasn't on the wall."

I am in the minority in that the ads on the wall doesn't really bother me. Yeah it looks better without but ads around the stadium goes back to the beginnings of baseball.

Did nobody else notice that the nets go all the way down the line now? Pretty crappy to have to watch through a net from the side of the outfield

they have been talking about extending the netting for a while, I guess they waited until they added the new on field seating


it for sure will make the victory laps a lot different after they win a Super Regional

I don’t understand why they didn’t use all that space behind center field. Where all the shite is stored. Easily could have had 2 pens in there for years.

The netting down the lines will be the most underrated change that people wont bitch much about until they go out there. I get why they need to do it, or feel like they need to, but it sucks. Hopefully they put nets over the playgrounds down each line. Those are destined for a fatality with all the kids running around not paying attention.

This 1000 %. They could have done double decker bullpens in the RF gap between centerfield and the RF bleachers.
The visitors BP looks bush league

Unfortunately not. They need the ad revenue but would prefer the nice clean green outfield fence rather than the playground booster ad look.

I thought someone said that there was an issue with utilities or something else back in that area that made it cost prohibitive.

Extended netting is horrific. It’s ruined my ability to enjoy a baseball game at pro stadiums.
