Looks pretty good. It also illustrates how far behind UGA is falling in terms of baseball facilities. I like Foley Field a lot, but it is not on par with the facilities they have at universities that care about their baseball programs.

Very cool. I like that design. They are making the most of the limited space that they have

Looks like an interesting use of limited space. Look forward to seeing it when it's done.

Will the new upgrades block specific pitched noises... like an annoying fricking whistle????

The new place will look great but be tarnished by that whistling asshat.

Looks really nice, but I would have probably gone a different direction with respect to aesthetics and tried to pair the brickwork they have in the existing stadium.

I am always happy and interested to see facility upgrades, baseball ones especially. Yall have a very limited footprint and have gotten creative. It's not my favorite, but it looks and good and is unique (in a good way)

When pouring concrete, throw the whistler in first and then proceed to pour.

Looks great. I was just wondering when Vanderbilt was going to upgrade the park.

Is Vandy baseball not considered Commodores? Vandyboys? Vandybaws?

My Sis-in-law is the "Senior Architect/Senior Planner" for Populous on this upgrade.

Does it include a sound proof booth for the "whistlers"?

Looks nice and the football renovation will be cool too.

I don’t find fault with any of the slams directed at the whistler. I can’t stand him either.
