The mound is gone so it's not longer an oddity for the CFs to deal with.

Did they bring the fence in as well? CF was massive with the mound.

Still a shite ballpark outfield wall/dimension wise. I think I made the same thing on a baseball video game back in the day.

I don't remember if they moved the fence in or moved the flag pole on the other side of the fence.

Nice. With all those ads, LSU will feel right at home.

It's one of the nicer parks out there. Not huge, but unique and easy on the eye. The outfield wall isn't uniform; that isn't a requirement. I like it.

When Bregman doubled against Houston 2 years ago, the sound of the ball banging against the left field scoreboard fence was pretty much the same time as the ping of the bat.

The definition of a frozen rope.

It's not Tampa, and for that we can all be thankful. Truly the worst pro baseball stadium I've ever been to.

Turner was bad the last few years. Arlington is beautiful, but a little too big for me. Boston is... nostalgic. Reminded me a LOT of the old Box.
