Shiner,
It probably was me that you saw. They are trying to work on the pitcher mound. Someone was out there mowing. There is no shade for fans. When I stepped the distance from the center of home plate down 1st base to the "yellow" tape for new fence, I stepped off 45 steps, which is approx. 135 feet. The existing fencing is approx. 23 steps further. From center of home plate to "yellow" tape at center field is approx. 48 steps, which is approx. 144 feet.
I also agree that the field is not in good shape. Right now the infield dirt is muddy.
I noticed in the Home side dugout that there was a section of re-bar sticking out of several concrete blocks.
If coaches are tall, they will need duck to go into the dugouts.
However, I guess we must do the best with this situation.
I spoke with the Tournament Director (Steven Kennedy) today and he said that the meeting on Thursday (7 p.m.) will be at the ballpark.
Does anyone know how Orange is going into the tournament?
